John W. Maybe age 89 of Wayne died Saturday, October 7, 2006 at the Saint Joseph’s Wayne Hospital in Wayne. He had several strokes and on September 13th, 2006 he suffered a major stroke and from that point on his health just faded. Finally on Saturday he passed away quietly and peacefully into eternal life.

He was born in Watervliet, New York and had lived in Newark and Forked River before moving to Wayne seven years ago.

John received his formal education at Newark Central High School in Newark.

He was a Mail Carrier for the United States Post Office in Caldwell where he worked for twenty-five years before his retirement in 1978. Previously he was a self employed Paint and Wallpaper contractor.

He was a parishioner of the Immaculate Heart of Mary Church and while living in Forked River he was a parishioner of Saint Pius X RC Church where he was also a member of the Knight of Columbus council.

John was a member of the Forked River Elks Lodge.

John served in the Navy during World War II in the Solomon Islands in the Pacific Theater of The War.

He leaves his family with many fond memories of a dedicated and loving family man. He was a loving husband, father and grandfather who was always there for his family. The arrival of grandchildren was a highlight in his life’s journey and he adored them. Dad often arranged vacations for the whole family and one memorable vacation of several weeks was a car trip to California via a Southerly route and returning home by way of a Northern route.

John was a man of many talents who could fix cars, do plumbing, electrical work and build. He was always enthusiastically offering his services to his sons to help them with their personal projects.

John and Cecilia Maybe had forty-four years of “loving and devoted” marriage before Cecilia’s passing in 1990.

Surviving are two sons John W. Maybe and his wife Christine of Milltown and Richard E. Maybe and his wife Margaret of Whippany; one sister Mary Maybe of Wayne; two grandchildren Melissa and Stephen Maybe.
