Not sure what to say?

50 years ago, I stood on the McGill front porch waiting for the family to get done saying the rosary. It seemed I spent as much time at their house as I did my own for several years. Colleen and I were inseparable as children, then we buried her when we were teenagers. Later, so much tragedy over the years. So sad. Thankfully I drove up to see Mr. Mcgill this summer. What a sweet, sweet man. His faith was stronger than anyone I have ever known. I was blessed to have known Mr Mcgill and his...

I will never forget what Grandpa told me when I visited him. He said " Be strong in your faith and love everyone no matter what." I love you, GRANDPA!!

I have known the McGill Family for 40 years and always felt like I was entering the Waltons from the TV show....so much incredible love within their home. Mr. McGill was like a father to me. I can still see him in the living room paying no attention to any of the noise around him...because he took his hearing aid out! The entire family had so much humor which is attributed to I believe both their Mom and Dad...if everyone could walk away with an ounce of humor like the Mr. McGill, what a...

I have been blessed to know the McGill family for 40 years starting with my dear friend Colleen who I met my first year at Hialeah High School. I was always touched by the warmth and love they shared together as a family and which extended out to all who knew them. Through the years I have watched with heartache as Colleen, Kathy, Beverly, Mike and now Tom have passed into the light. I feel a joyous reunion in heaven for all of them, yet a sadness of all of us who are left behind. In their...

I was blessed to be the last of his living sons to have enjoyed time alone with my dad in Georgia before he went to the Lord. My dad is truly in a place of peace where his new life begins. I will truly miss him but I know one day we will be reunited again sharing the great memories, laughs and so many other great things my dad shared. I Love you Dad.

Grandpa we will miss you so much! We will miss your hugs, your sense of humor and your big big smile!. We know you are at peace with all our family that have gone before us... WE LOVE YOU GRANDPAW!!!!!!!

Dear Steve and family:

Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. I'll never forget Mr. McGill. Whenever I answered the phone at work and heard "Hi honey, is he available?" I knew it was Steve's dad.

What a sweet gentleman.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Dear McGill Family,
I was saddened to read about your father's passing. I went to school, many years ago, with your sister, Colleen.
Please accept my condolences.
