Maximillian B. “Max” Stillman, age 27 of Mound, MN. He was a treasure in this world. A beloved son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin,friend and much more. He was an exquisite character with the most gentle pure soul. He was an artist, painter, drawer, master video gamer, goofy dancer, chef, chess and magic champion, camper, traveler, student, and lover of nature and animals. He listened, loved and healed with his exquisite sea blue eyes. He was drawn to those in need and had a unique, tender touch to heal,. His sister and best friend, Grace, describes this touch as the gift of knitting those hurting back together. His grin was contagious and his love eternal. Selfless and loving to the very end, he will live on through the donation of his organs. This sacred gift will help other's in need and it allows our beautiful, creative and humble Max to continue to paint brush strokes on this earth.
