It's with great sadness that we share the passing of Edwin “Eddy” Alexander Maxwell on Wednesday, 28 June 2023. He will be sorely missed and is survived by his wife, Jennifer Maxwell; his children and their partners, Aiesha Maxwell and Robert Webber, and Kala Maxwell and Nila Henry; his grandchildren, Amiya, Kairo and Miles, as well as his many nephews and nieces.
After receiving treatment for cancer in Turkey, Edwin returned to the UK on Saturday, 24 June 2023. All seemed well and, although Edwin was weak, he was talking about getting strong and talking about plans for later in the year. However, on Monday, his health started to deteriorate rapidly, and he passed peacefully two days later with his wife, daughter, and grandson by his side.
Edwin was a fantastic human being, fun-loving, friendly, and unbelievably strong, always putting his friends and family before himself. A big believer in the strength and power of community, he volunteered for several non-profits in the Nottingham area, helping them grow and better serve their clients. He'll be missed by all that loved him, and he was loved by many.
The funeral was held at Mansfield Road Baptist Church on Tuesday, 18th July at 11am. The burial was at Tithe Green Burial Ground at 2pm, followed by a reception in Alexandra Park, Nottingham. A recording of the funeral can be viewed here: https://www.eventhorizonavs.co.uk/edwinmaxwellservice.
