I had the privilege of going to high school with Maggie and thinking back on the time spent with her I don’t ever remember seeing her frown. I believe that she led a good life and is now some place where she will be eternally happy.

I am extremely sorry for your loss. God Bless

To Maggie's family, words can not express how sorry I am. I am honored to have been able to call Maggie my friend. I'll never forget when we were little playing rec soccer, my dad was the coach and Mr. Gannett was the assistant coach. Even at that young age, I could see the strength within her. I'm sad for the loss, but happy because I know Mags is up in heaven breathing strong.
