My sincerest condolences to Maynard’s family. Maynard was a good man and he will surely be missed. My brother Karl Hoffman and I had the pleasure of knowing Maynard and Ed when we lived in Sheridan. We had such fun times! Karl passed in 2012, so he and his friend Maynard are probably laughing and having a good time as always. We loved Maynard dearly.
