We loved Maynard and will certainly miss him. I loved to give him hugs at church because he always seemed to get such a kick out of it. God will welcome him to his kingdom and Maynard will rejoice at the gift of eternal life God has given him. We will include you all in our prayers. Love, Les and Emily Lourigan
