Neither make any difference for both are symbolic of his death. This writer believes in a living Christ and not a dead one. To some the cross reminds them of His death and sacrifice.

Neither Mary nor any disciple or friend of Jesus at his crucifixion.John's Gospel says that the 'disciple whom Jesus loved', alone of the disciples, stood at the foot of the cross with Mary, mother of Jesus.

Who wash there when jesus died on the cross?

While Jesus was on his way to the hill called Golgotha to be hung on a cross, Simon of Cyrene was grabbed by Roman soldiers to carry Jesus's cross for him, as Jesus was too weak from all the beatings to do so himself. By the time Jesus was hanging on the cross he was watched by a number of Roman soldiers who threw lots for his clothes. With him were two other criminals who were condemned also. There was also an abundance of religious leaders there to spite Jesus, telling him again and again that if really was the Christ he would take himself down off the cross. At a distance a group of women stood watching, these included: Mary Magdalene, Mary mother of James, and Salome. There were other women besides these, but they remain unknown. Though it is unclear, it is possible that Joseph of Arimathea was present because after Jesus's actual death the Bible states that he approached Pilate to retreive his body from the cross.

Who was the apostle that stayed at the foot of the cross with Jesus?

The Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke are clear in saying that no disciple of Jesus stood at the foot of the cross; those of his acquaintance stood afar off. In the Gospel of John, the "disciple whom Jesus loved" stood at the foot of the cross with Mary. Who the disciple was, or who he was intended to be, is unknown. The second-century Church Fathers, by a process of elimination, decided that the disciple must have been John.
