Memories and Condolences
for William McGing

Not sure what to say?

I only met Mr. McGing a couple times -once in Chicago and once at my wedding. It only took a couple times to realize that this was a pretty neat guy.



He was the most Irish man I have ever met. I feel lucky to have spent some hours listening to his brogue, and still laugh at the humor he injected into the conversation.



My sympathies to the entire McGing family.
