"And He will raise you up on eagle's wings, Bear you on the breath of dawn, Make you to shine like the sun, And hold you in the palm of His Hand." I love you, and I will miss you.

You were a truly wonderful teacher who taught your students more that just how to weld. This loss is great but the knowledge you gave to others is greater. You will be forever in our thoughts and greatly missed.

Dear Family, I am so sorry for your loss my heart and prayers are with you. I think of Mr. Maguire and remember doing the waltz with him at Penny and Evans wedding and I remember him telling me I reminded him of his wife. This was a very memoriable day for me. I guess I just want to say he was a ray of sunshine and touched my heart. Thank You Mr. Maguire. Love Jenny
