It's probably been 25 years since I've seen Mr. McGonagle or the family but he was such an influence over all our young people at St. Lawrence back then. I have wonderful memories of youth group, choir, and Mrs. McGonagle singing at midnight Mass. To this day, a Christmas never passes that I don't remember those beautiful services. His was a life well lived, and we are all so fortunate to have been a part of it. He's walking with God now.

Dear McGonagles,
I had the true pleasure of knowing him both at St. Paul's and BK, and truly treasure the experience! He was always spirited, inspiring and a pleasure to be around...I even knew that as a child!
God Bless!

Dear Aunt Theresa, Theresa, Margaret, Christine, Cynthia, and Elizabeth. I am keeping you all in my prayers. Uncle Joe was such a loving man, and I will always remember the twinkle in his eye. His mother had the same twinkle. I am grateful that he taught me that Jesus loves me. He told me to love Jesus, and I do. He told me Jesus told us to love one another, and I will. Thank you for sharing your husband and father with us. He is a man I will follow to God.

It was my privilege to know Joseph as one of his students in TIPS and also as a professor for TIPS where I was employed. He was delightful to be around and always smiling and always
eager to share his vast knowledge. He was truly a gift to his students and will indeed be missed by many. May it comfort you to know how much he was appreciated and what a blessing he was to so many.
