I hope many of you have enjoyed watching the president’s 2nd inauguration today, as have I. But it is with much sadness I want to inform you of the passing of Kevin McGuire, our member and friend Vivian McGuire’s husband.

Kevin passed away late Saturday afternoon/evening on 1/19/2013. He had gone skiing at Loon Mtn. on Friday, which is something he loved. Saturday he complained of some arm and chest pain, but figured it was just the exertion from skiing, since that’s not a regular activity these days. He did not want to go to the hospital, but wanted to rest.  He went into the bedroom and Vivian went in the kitchen to bake a pie. There were errands he needed to do, and Vivian had said she would do them for him.  When she went back in to talk to him about the errands he had peacefully passed away from a heart attack. Her efforts and the efforts of the Emergency Medical Team to revive him were unsuccessful.

Life is exceedingly difficult for her at this time with her son’s poor health and now her husband (of 39 3/4 years) gone. A close friend is staying with her presently and her daughter is helping her as much as possible with arrangements, and such. Please share positive thoughts, wishes, energy and prayers for our friend, Vivian McGuire as she grieves this loss. I will post details as I receive them, and they will be listed in the Nashua Telegraph as well.

Update: A Memorial Service will be held on Friday 1/25 at noon at Alvirne Chapel in Hudson, NH.
