Dear Barbara: Mary and I are so sorry to hear of your tremendous loss. We remember Martin as a boy at Holy Martyr's Parish in Falmouth. A wonderful young man. God Bless.

Martin,
I'm still trying to accept the fact that you're gone. You were a great human being. Kind, caring, and accepting. I will miss your funny personality, And your caring nature. Even when you had health problems of your own to deal with, you still got in touch with me to ask how My Family was doing...I'll never forget that. I will miss you brother.

April, Ella and Lily,
The Cunningham Family is always a call or text away if you need anything that we can help with....

Dover – Martin J. McGough, 40, passed away Wednesday, March 28, 2018, at Tufts Medical Center following a brief illness.

 

Born July 8, 1977, in Portland, ME, he was the son of James McGough and Barbara Keefe.

Martin was a master at making life-long friends in all circles of his life.
