The family of Max Baldonado Jr of Seattle WA, is deeply sorrowed to announce his passing on September 7, 2024 at the age of 64 years.
Max’s passion and love of music was truly infectious. His enthusiasm brought out the best in everyone he met and played with. (Thank you Silva). Max and a dear friend both founded a flute choir, Flutrange, that lasted many years.
He enjoyed teaching and tutoring students of all ages, volunteering and organizing charities. Always giving back to his community, he served as the President on the CPTA board from 2023-2024 (ending in August)
Max was very loved by all and had the ability to make everyone smile. He had the most wonderful bear hugs that he enjoyed sharing. These hugs will be missed by all.
Max is survived by his oldest sister Judith Baldonado – Amador; his younger sister/husband Paula Peerman-Alves; Rick Alves; nephew Drew Peerman; his only surviving uncle/aunt Ricardo; and Leoneva Sandoval, along with many surviving cousins.
Special Thanks: our Heartfelt thanks to everyone at Cedar Park in Seattle WA their involvement and support were very appreciated.

“A beloved soul who touched many lives.”
“There are no goodbyes for us. Wherever you are, you will always be in my heart.”

Max was such a sweetheart! He made a difference in a lot of people’s lives. He will be very missed!!
I met Max in the pit of Mary Levine’s Civic Light Opera orchestra. He was a very kind, loving soul… I will always remember him fondly as a fine musician and caring person …
I, too, met Max in the pit of Mary Levine’s Civic Light Opera orchestra, where we played together for many years and kept in touch after.
He was indeed such a kind and gentle soul. May he always live on in the hearts and memories of all of us who knew and loved him ❤️
He was loving, and well loved. I could learn a lot from him.
Max, I met you at a “volunteer” gathering somewhere around 2010-ish & we just started dancing out of the blue! It was like we’d known each other all along. I didn’t know you were ill & I’m sorry I didn’t keep in better touch with you. I Love you, see you on the other side.
Max, I’m shocked to learn of your passing! I remember fondly sharing the orchestra pits with you at Village Theater where I first met you and carpooled with you. Miss you, my friend!!
Max brought smiles to my face and left music in my heart, he was the sunshine in any gloomy day. I will love you for eternity Max. (Superman)
Met Max through Rainbow City Band and swing band. Excellent musician and brought so much light to the group. He bonded with my Mom over crocheting and her love of Big Band music. Miss his smile and hugs!
Oh Max….
I’m so sorry to hear of your passing….no words. Always a kind and gracious soul. Love and comfort to your family, friends, students and fellow musicians.
