On this 5th anniversary of his passing, we reflect on the legacy of a brilliant engineer, aerobatic pilot and creative genius. I truly don't believe that I will ever again see more commitment from an individual who had faced more adversity, and yet was more inspiring and self-effacing, than John MacGuire. May God truly bless John MacGuire! He will continue to be sorely missed! He's even on my Ofrenda!

Hard to believe it's been a year since your passing. Anne, I pray God has comforted you. John was such a bright light and impacted so many, he won't be forgotten.

John was an absolutely brilliant, creative, enjoyable person to work with at Lockheed Martin. I met John while working the NASP aircraft, and we had wonderful projects together. He even came to my retirement party in 2015. A superb human being I will miss and cherish knowing for the rest of my life.

My condolences to the family . May you find comfort in your treasured memories and Gods promise to return our loved ones . 1st Thessalonians 4 : 13 & 14 .

The world has lost a bright light, John was an incredible engineer but he was also a man of incredible kindness and the world is a lesser place without him. My deepest condolences and prayers for peace to his family.

I was so sorry to hear of John's passing. We were classmates at St. Anthony's all those many years ago. I remember him fondly. He always had ruddy cheeks. Even though he was quiet, he always had a smile on his face. Even 60 years ago, you just knew this smart boy would go far. RIP dear John. I know the angels escorted you home.

Anne, I am so sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers, along with your family.

John, you were always the engineer, performing trade off studies for just about every decision - what airplane to replace the Pitts, what car to drive, how to design a hangar/home that was wheelchair accessible... Fly high!

Our hearts are broken. We are still grappling with this reality, and it doesn’t seem right that our sweet friend and neighbor isn’t here now as he always was. We know John is soaring now as never before. He is not bound by anything anymore! His brilliance as we saw it here on Earth is off the charts now in the presence of God. He is living more fully than ever and our love for him will never die. Prayers have been ongoing for his wife Anne and his family, from our family to yours.
