To the McGinnis Family:

Your Dad was a great man and physician. My mother and I were patients of his for many years. He delivered me some 50 plus years and it was a very difficult birth. I have him to be greatful for his knowledge and skill. It was always a joy to see him yearly for my check-ups and to discuss his Love for fishing. He will be greatly missed by everyone He touched. My sympathy to the family.
