We will all miss Mr. McGinley. He was a wonderful friend and neighbor. Those of the Performing Arts will miss his sunny smile and quick wit. I know that I will always remember all the great times over the years, between Swim Team and all the "Run Ins" around town. He was one of the greatest!

Dear Michael, Jack, Annie, Tim and Molly,

I have so many good memories of your Dad over the years - the neighborhood won't be the same without him. I'll miss our conversations about Canevin and Penn State whenever I come back to Crafton to visit.

You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear McGinley Family:

We knew you Dad and Mom for over 19 years. We had a number of great times with them over the years. Two things that they were most proud of was being Irish and of their family. Jack always spoke of his children and grandchildren with much love in his heart. When he retired from the Postal Service, we made sure that we kept in touch. He was so sad when your Mom died, but now he must be as happy as can be, to be with her.

You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Jack's love of his hometown was exceeded only by his love of his children, whom he loved to speak of at great length. He was one of the most admired men I've ever known.

All of our deepest sympathies to his family.

If all the world was as kind a person as Jack McGinley, what a wonderful world this would be. In his 40 years of Postal Service he made a countless number of friends and I am proud to say I was one of them.
