William MAYNARD

I still cannot believe he has passed away. He was my favorite teacher and the only one I cared to remember. I would go to craycroft every night once in awhile to visit with him. Once I graduated, I was headed into the Army, I told my mother I needed to go and say good bye to him. He meet us at his classroom door, took one look at my mother and said you are not as scary as I remember. We all laughed. I loved this man. He is missed. God speed sir until we meet again. Cristy

Today is favorite teachers day. I was thinking about the teachers who impacted me the most. Mr Maynard came to mind. I was with him in 4th and 6th grade at Craycroft Elementary .Remembering his positive presents, humor ,patients and honest interaction with his students. He was a great influence .

Deo, this is Carol Smith and I want to say how very sorry I am for you.Maynard was one in a million and could make everyone laugh.There were so many jokes he played on his friends and always brought a smile to everyone's face. Teaching was not a job to him as he loved all the kids and he loved animals just as much so I will make a donation to ASPCA once a month in Bill's memory. I will never forget what an inspiration Maynard was to me and the students he touched and look forward to seeing...

Sorry for your loss family. Mr. Maynard was a favorite teacher at Sierra and definitely an inspiration to many of us.

Deo and Family, I am so sorry for your loss. Mr. Maynard was my 6th and 8th grade math teacher. Those were some tough years for every adult who had to deal with me, just ask Mr. Rodriguez. Mr. Maynard never got mad at me and always made me feel respected. I became a middle school teacher a little over a decade later and I tried my best to treat every student with respect and plenty of humor and love just like him or at least as close as I could get. Thank you for being an amazing, patient,...

Deo, I am so sad and shocked to hear the news of Bill. Suzanne and I send our deepest sympathy. It was truly great working with Bill all those years at Sierra and I will always be thankful I was a member of his team. I learned so much from him. I am so sorry.

Deo, I send deepest sympathy for your loss. Bill's friendship with my brother and his warm presence in my family's home enriched my childhood. To honor his memory, I will make a donation to a charity that feeds people - Oxfam.

Wow! I was just sharing a great memory of my 7th grade teacher, Mr.Maynard, with my husband. You were so very kind and just totally cool. My deepest condolences to all... rest well,sir
