It is of great sadness to hear of the passing of our classmate Mr. Cecil McGinnis, I will always remember the good time we all had at there house during High School. They invited everyone into there house to enjoy themselves during those good days. I hope and pray that the Mcginnis family find comfort in Jesus, for he is in charge of all.
