Max Lunt's Hectic Summer

:
Max Lunt's Hectic Summer

Max Lunt, the new school principal, had a very hectic and rushed summer. After he accepted the position for principal at Marshall from Fairbanks, he flew back to Arizona to be with his family. Max is originally from Arizona and most of his brothers and sisters live there. His older brother suffered a stroke in May and he spent a lot of time helping his hamily and staying with him. Living in Alaska now, over 3,000 miles away, with his brother in that condition, Max hopes he'll still see him alive at Christmas.

Meanwhile, Max's wife, Carol, and daughter, Natalie, were in the process of moving up to Marshall with him. So they were busy getting all their affairs in order. Before leaving they rented the house that they were living in for the past two years.

Since Max has six children living in the Phoenix area and one in Nevada he spent part of the summer enjoying his children and 7 grandchildren.

The middle of July they took off for Salt Lake City, Utah, as his daughter moved there with her husband when he was transferred there. He is going to school to be a diesel mechanic. After visiting family and friends in Utah, at the end of July Max and his family flew up to Anchorage for a few days before coming to Marshall.
