Joseph McMahon Obituary

He was always Joey to me. We would play badminton for hours when we lived in St. Felicitas Parish. I would stand in Joey's backyard and he would stand in the alley and we'd play over the fence. We'd hit line drives and people would watch us.I think we amazed ourselves. I was able to connect with Joe a few years ago and just recently found out about his passing. Eternal rest grant unto Joey, Oh Lord, and may the perpetual light shine upon him and may he rest in peace. I miss you my friend! Joannie Menconi Voves

Joe McMahon was my friend and fellow "in-law" with the Powers family. Co-incidental our parents were friends. There will always be that bond between the McAuliffes and McMahons. Miss you Joe. Wishing you peace. Patti

I worked with Joe at First Chicago on the trading floor. He was a solid guy who was a straight shooter. There was no BS about him. That is what I appreciated the most. His leaving us is felt by many.

Our family lived across from the McMahon's on Dante Avenue in Chicago in the 50's and 60's. I have many fond memories of our times at St. Felicitas School. Joe was at one of Judy and Brian McMahon's gatherings and I immensely enjoyed conversing with him. My sympathies are with the McMahon family at this difficult time.

My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Joe was so full of life and will be missed. Jane Bickel and family Chicago IL.

Litany of Remembering

In the rising of the sun and its going down
We remember them.
In the blowing of the wind and the chill of winter.
We remember them.
In the opening of buds and in the warmth of summer
We remember them.
In the rustling of leaves and the beauty of autumn
We remember them.
In the beginning of the year and when it ends
We remember them.
When we are weary and in need of strength
We remember them.
When we are lost and sick at heart
We remember them.
For as long as we live, they too shall live,
For they are a part of us
We remember them.
They shall live forever in the communion of the saints,
In the arms of God
We remember them.

Sincere condolences for your loss. May you find comfort in God's word. Isaiah 61:3

I am sadden to hear of the passing of Joe. My prayers to the family on their loss. I was a year behind Joe at St. Felicitas. I meet with Joe a few years back and talked about the good old days at Felicitas. Joe was too young to leave this world.
