What a gem of humankind he was! More than anyone I have ever known, Todd McGee "walked the talk"! His kind words to me following Casey´s death are forever in my heart. When I saw Todd last year at Reagan´s graduation, I told him I thought he got better looking with each year. He shyly smiled and replied, " Don´t tell my brothers!" I informed him they already knew, and they were jealous! I miss him and will forever think of him with love and kindness. Diana McCormick

I am so sorry for your loss, McGee family. I fondly remember Todd’s bright, cheerful spirit and kind ways at Messiah. He was such a joyful encourager. May the Holy Spirit bring comfort and peace to you in these coming days.

I heard of Todd's passing at our Basketball Social last night. I refereed many times with Todd, and always regarded him as genuine. His modest demeanor always shined through, conflicting with mine. He's why I know what true worth is, and I will hold that close. I'm better for having known him. There must've been an important game up above, God only takes the best!

Betty, Jay, Jon, Christy and kids, I am so very sorry about the passing of Todd. I know sudden passing of a family member is so very hard but knowing the love and friendship Todd had with Jesus can give peace that he´s being well cared for and in such a wonderful place now with his dad. He was a great guy and has left a mark on all people he ministered too, children and adult.

We are so saddened to hear about Todd. He was a special person and wonderful teacher. My daughter and son had him as their phys.ed. teacher many years ago at SSCD. He will always be remembered as a favorite teacher who brightened up their day.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I dont know where to start when it comes to Mr. McGee. There is absolutely nothing but great things to say about him. Mr. McGee was the heart and soul of Blairsville elementary school. He was the most positive person around and that positivity quickly spread throughout wherever he was. He made an immense impact on every student he taught. He truly cared about every single kid he had in class and made it a priority to show that. He will be forever dearly missed. My prayers go out to his wife...
