Maxwell III, John W

John Maxwell, a treasured husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend, passed away unexpectedly at his home in Asheville, North Carolina, 3 weeks after celebrating his 80th birthday in

Hilton Head, South Carolina, with his family. John grew up in West Hartford, CT, son of John and Patricia (Sullivan) Maxwell. After graduating from St. Anselm’s College, John was proud to have spent nearly 50 years in the insurance industry. Still,

his greatest joy was his time with family and friends.

Left to grieve are his wife Jane, sons John (Kristen), Hingham,

MA, Darren, Brooklyn, NY, and Jared (Laura) Hingham, MA and 5 adored grandchildren, Grace, Margot, Joe, Griffin, and Reagan. He also leaves behind 2 sisters, Suzanne Bailey-gates and Linda Crowe, and many nephews, nieces, and cousins. He was predeceased by
