There is alot of sadness in our little community again. Korey Wagner, age 44, has passed away from a heart attack. Korey's parents are Don and Margaret Wagner of Max; his sister is Sandy Swanson of Max; and his brother is Randy Wagner, who lives in Minot but works at the Max Elevator. Korey and his wife Kim and 3 year old son live in Mandan. Many of you may remember Korey and Kim from when they ran the Conoco gas station in Max, now the Cenex station. Our sincere sympathy to Don and Margaret, Sandy and her family, and Randy and his family.
