Mrs Maynard reflected on her husband's love and compassion for especially children attending the H. Lavity Stoutt Community College as many a times he would give them rides to college.
"And he would tell you when they go to pay he would tell them keep the money to buy their lunch or snacks, he understands what it is to have a child in college. So we are praying for him, it's good to keep hope alive,' said Mrs Maynard.
