Jonathan Glynn, 17,
(known as Jay in racing circles.) was thrown from his blue Citroen Saxo when it plunged down an
embankment near York at 4.50pm on Saturday 23rd September 2006.
His girlfriend of 18 months, Robyn Wishart, 15, was airlifted to hospital and is said to be stable
but critical. Her family, from Maltby Court, Colton, were today keeping vigil at the James Cook
University Hospital in Middlesbrough.
Jonathan and Robyn had been travelling on the A64, near the junction with the A19 Fulford
interchange, after a day out at Flamingo Land.
Jonathan, of Templegate Road, Colton, was pronounced dead at the scene. No other vehicles were
involved in the accident.
Jonathan is an apprentice mechanic and had scooped a string of awards and trophies. At the start of
this year, he was given a new bike as his 17th birthday present and aimed for the top in the 2006
Metzeler Racetec National Superstock Championship Cup.

Hello my darling, you know you're always in our thougthts, every minute, every day.
It was the inquest on your accident today. They said it was accidental death due fatigue. They are
sure that you were asleep my little man and you didn't know anything about it. You'd come in late in
the early hours of the morning and only had a few hours sleep. If only you had not had to get up
early to go out - you were too tired to drive.
There was nothing wrong with your car, it was in good condition, you were driving sensibly, you
weren't going very fast - about 54mph on a 70mph road. You had had a late night, little sleep, a fun
and full day at the park and then a long drive back. You'd just fallen asleep. I hope you were still
asleep when the accident happened because then you're last thoughts would have been about you're
happy day out and not of those last few minutes. It wasn't your fault babe, just a tragic accident.
We love you and we're missing you so much Jay, stay close and let me know you're OK and having fun
with Chris, Ashley, Jonathan, Carl and all your other new friends. Hope you're showing them how to
mix those basslines.
------------------------------
WE'D LIKE TO THANK EVERYONE THAT HAVE LEFT MESSAGES AND POEMS FOR JAY AND HIS FAMILY. JAY IS LOVED
BY SO MANY PEOPLE AND HE HAS SO MANY FRIENDS. HIS STAR SHINES BRIGHT AND HE IS CLOSE TO US ALL.
WE'VE MADE LOTS OF NEW FRIENDS FROM THE SITE AND YOUR MESSAGES HAVE BROUGHT US COMFORT DURING THIS
SAD TIME. OUR THOUGHTS ARE WITH THOSE THAT HAVE LOST LOVED ONES, TAKE CARE LOVE CAROL, JOHN &
CARLY-ANN XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
-------------------------------
Our grief is like a river
We have to let it flow
but we ourselves determine
just when the banks will go.
Some days the current takes us
in waves of guilt and pain
but there are always quiet pools
where we can rest again.
We crash on rocks of anger
Our faith seems faint indeed
but there are other swimmers
who know what we need.
Are loving hands to hold us,
when the waters are too swift
and someone kind to listen
when we just seem to drift
Grief's river is a process
of relinquishing the past
By swimming in hopes of channels
We'll reach the shore at last.
In my thoughts and prayers. Love from Liz Stuart Maxwell's mum

The Year before Last
by Unknown
The holiday season is approaching,
and with it comes the New Year.
Although for me time passes slowly,
New Year's Day will ring in quickly.
I dread this New Year's Day
because they will look at me
in a terribly strange way
when I get misty-eyed,
and talk about something you had done.
After you first left me,
they reasoned when I cried,
"He's only been gone a few months."
And I would catch that look of
understanding in their eyes,
and found some comfort that they knew.
But on last New Year's Day,
my first thought upon awakening was,
Oh God, my son died last year,
not just a few months ago, not even this year,
but last year.
He will never live in this year.
They didn't understand, they didn't reason,
that last year, for me, the loss was still new.
They thought, "It happened last year,
so long ago, why she still cries?"
I could see it in their eyes.
This New Year's Day, will it be different?
Will my first thought upon awakening be,
Oh God, my son died the year before last,
not a few months ago, not this year or even last year,
but the year before last?
He will never live in this year.
Will they even listen, should I not look them
in the eyes, for fear that I shall see,
"Why is she still crying? It happened so long ago.
It was the year before last."
Those words that we use
to describe the passage of time,
a few months, this year,
last year, the year before last.
They don't know that time stands still for me.
Will they understand that's why I cry?
Don't they know
my son just died ...
the year before last?
Thank you for all your support this year. Wishing you, your family and Jonathan a peaceful 2009. Love from Liz Stuart Maxwell's mum x
