John's Gospel, although loosely based on Luke, changes the account of the crucifixion to place the 'disciple whom Jesus loved' at the foot of the cross with Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of Jesus and her sister. The second-century Church Fathers announced that the beloved disciple must have been John, son of Zebedee, and the Christian Church has subsequently accepted this attribution.

The saint who stood with Mary at the foot of the cross was St. John the Apostle. He is often referred to as "the disciple whom Jesus loved" and was entrusted by Jesus to care for his mother, Mary, as he died on the cross.
The apostles and Jesus were at the Last Supper of Jesus. When Jesus was on the cross, Jesus' mother Mary, the apostle John, and a few other women were there.
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.
John was the only apostle at the cross when he died.
St. Jude was one of the 12 apostles. He was the son of Cleophas, who died a martyr, and Mary who stood at the foot of the Cross with the Blessed Virgin, and who anointed Christ's body after death. He is the brother of Saint James the Lesser and a nephew of Mary and Joseph which made him a blood relative of Jesus Christ, and he was reported to have looked a lot like him. Before he joined the apostles he was probably a fisherman. He was beaten to death in Persia and later beheaded.
