Not sure what to say?

My thoughts are with the McGill family.

Another one of "The Greatest Generation" has passed, but an angel in Heaven has been added.

Mr. McGill was such a sweet, caring man and always made you feel special with one of his trademark BIG hugs.

Love, prayers and thoughts to the McGill families.

I am so sorry for your loss. Great Uncle Don always had a smile on his face when I saw him. I know he loved Great Aunt "Awful"(I couldn't say Ethel as a little girl, so that is what I called her for a long time!) with all his heart. He was one of the "good guys".

A wonderful neighbor and a great hardware store. How could anyone live in St. Johns and not know the McGill's? Our love to Mrs. McGill and the family.

Mrs. McGill and family you have lost a dear man. My heart is broken for your loss and I am so glad Marjorie and I stopped by the end of April for a wonderful visit and also got to catch up with Bobby who was there at the time.
Growing up with the McGill's as a neighbor was one of the high points of my childhood. Mr. McGill was such a wonderful person.
My visits over the years each time I visited Oregon was a high point of my trips home.

Mr Mcgill was one of the nicest people that I have had the pleasure to know. My Uncle Dan Clark lived across the street, and I met Him when I was just a little kid, got to see Him and Mrs. Mcgill over the years, and He always knew who I was, what a great Man, just never forget the memories.
God Bless you,
Gale and Sharon Meier
Boring Oregon.

Please accept my sympathies in the death of Don. I always enjoyed our visits at the office and I will miss him.

He was a good friend to Mom and Dad. I aways admired his calm demeanor. A steadfast member of the community and strong parent. Our hearts go out to Ethel.

This is a sad day for the Griffith family as well. Don was like a second father to me as a child. The barbeques, fishing trips, and family vacations we all took together are still with me. The McGills were best friends of my mon and dad since high school. My prayers are with you all at this time. I wish I could be at the service. Doug
