Lavene, Dale, Nancy, and Debra, and Families, so sorry to hear about Maynard, I had planned on coming to Alberta ever since he first got sick, and now this. I will get down to see you all real soon, the Funeral caught me getting ready to leave town for two weeks but only two weeks this time and not nineteen years as last time. I last talked with Maynard and John Smith one year ago this Saturday at the Cochran Brunswick Stew Cook off and as usual you wouldn't want to know what they talked about, no good as usual. Su and I will be down to see you as soon as we get back. I am truthfully sorry he is gone but plesed the sickness was relatively short. As you know I worked with Maynard on the construction of both of your houses and at the Cochran Service Station a short time as well, we had some good times back then. Take care and I am sure everything will be just fine.

With Warmest Regards,and deepest Sympathy,

Su and Lewis (Frosty) Moseley

I am so sorry to hear of Maynard's passing. My parents, George and Blanche Nash, and my uncle and aunt, Robert and Annie Lewis, always thought the world of Maynard. We used to have a lot of together. All my love to all the family. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Joe and I were so sorry to hear of Maynard's illness and passing.



I used to love to hear the "guess what Maynard did today" stories that Joe told when they worked together. I don't think there was ever a dull moment. Did he still eat those sugar free "Frookies"? And I hope he never got shot in the rear with a nail gun again.



He will be missed by many and will never be forgotten.



Our thoughts and prayers are with you, LaVene, and your family.



Love,

Ronnnie West

Debra and family:



I am very sorry to hear about Maynard but my heart also rejoice knowing that he is with the Lord. May you find in the Lord Jesus the strength that you need for the coming days. If I or my family can help in any way please give us a call. In His Name...Ronnie West

My sincere sympathy is expressed to Lavene and the family. I have many memories of Maynard as he has been a long time friend of my family. My deceased husband, Dewey, always thought so much of Maynard.
