Rita,
I'm sorry to have heard that Mike passed away. He had a lot of class & was a truly good guy way back in High School & I'm sure that was true throughout his entire life.
God Bless.

To the family of 1SG Michael McDonough Sr.
Words cannot express my sorrow for your loss. Early in my military career Mike was one of my platoon sergeants and then my 1st Sergeant, in Lockport. He was an excellent leader and overall great person to be around. His leadership helped guide my direction in the Army National Guard and still does to this day and I owe a lot to him for helping to direct my military career.
I will be forever grateful to have known him and served with him, he was a great man.

Mike and I played football in high school on opposite sides of the ball, Mike at DeSales and me at Bishop Duffy. After high school we were classmates at Niagara University and spent many hours together in the student center. Mike was a great guy who I often thought about through the years. My deepest sympathy to family and friends. Patrick Baker, NU Class of 1967
