John Maynard

In loving memory of our beloved husband and father, son and brother… On August 4th 2026, he passed away at the age of 58, after a courageous battle with cancer. He leaves behind his beloved wife and his two children, his father and sister, who will carry his love in their hearts for the rest of their lives. He was a kind, joyful and wonderful man – creative, optimistic, warm-hearted and always able to bring a smile even in difficult moments. His laughter, his strength and the way he loved his family will never be forgotten. We still cannot understand that you are no longer here. Saying goodbye hurts more than words could ever express. But we are grateful for every moment we were given with you, for every laugh, every conversation, every memory and every piece of love you left behind. You may have left this world, but you will never leave our hearts. Your love will live on in us forever. ** those we have held in our arms for a little while, we will hold in our hearts forever **
Condolences

Dear John’s family, My name is Hasnain, and I’m writing to you from India. I never had the chance to know John personally, but after reading your beautiful words about him, I felt deeply moved to leave a small message here. I also lost my elder brother to cancer on 14 August 2026. He left behind his wife, one daughter and two sons. Having experienced the pain of losing someone so close to me to this terrible disease, I can understand, at least in some way, how deeply such a loss affects an entire family. I know that every family's grief is different, and I would never claim to know exactly what you are going through. But I understand how much a loved one's absence can be felt, especially by the people who shared their everyday lives with them. The way you describe John makes it clear how much love, warmth and happiness he brought into your lives. I just want you to know that even a stranger, thousands of miles away in India, has taken a moment to remember John and appreciate the beautiful life he lived. I sincerely hope that his memories continue to bring your family comfort and strength. May the beautiful moments you shared with him always remain close to your hearts. Sending heartfelt prayers, love and my deepest condolences to your entire family. With respect and sympathy, Hasnain India
