Brian Maxwell

The well known durban punter and racing fanatic Brian Maxwell a very close friend of mine for over 40 years slipped into a coma at the Durban Hospice this afternoon and appears to have lost his long fight with cancer,he has been fighting the curse for over 2 years now and just last week expressed his wish to be around for his last Met or to watch his beloved Ebony Flier run again, sadly that wish does not look like it will be fulfilled,rest easy my buddy you will be sorely missed...strength to the Maxwell family in these trying times...

Brian Maxwell;a real character who loved racing and everything to do with racing. It was fun knowing you. GOD bless you,

R.I.P

The passing of Brian has come as a complete
shock to me.Ive known Brian all my life he was like a
brother to me and my best freind. Last week
before knowing what happened I dreamed
about Brian 3 nights in a row and he looked
so well healthy strong and smiling. But something
made me feel uneasy like something was wrong.
I looked all over for Brian's phone number
but couldnt find it since moving over seas
5 years ago I had lost touch with Brian.For some reason
I googled (Brian Maxwell Durban) And saw that
dreadful news that Tich had posted up.
Brian was really and truly one of the good guys
He helped out so many people if you needed
something money,a favour or anything Brian
would never refuse if he could help he would.
We went all over the country together up and
down the North and South coast to joburg and
cape town staying in nice hotels eating,drinking
and laughing together. Those are times that
are imprinted in my head. I'm so sorry I wasn't
there my brother I'm going to miss you so much.
My thoughts are with you always my brother
Lots of love Joe. B.
My deepest condolences to the Mr and Mrs Maxwell
Cliffie and Lynette and the rest of the family.
