My Deepest Sympathy to the McGonigle Family, I remember as a little boy my parents were the Milwaukee Journal dealers in Sun Prairie. My Dad would deliver the papers to the drugstore and I'd go along because I would usually get a treat for helping with the papers. I have fond memories of the old drugstore and all the different kinds of merchandise it sold. May your father rest in peace. Steve Fiene

Joy Reininger left a message on July 2, 2014:
Neil and my dad James Reininger were longtime friends and childhood neighbors. Both dads had their businesses across Main Str. from each other; John McGonigle at McGonigle's Drug Store, and Frank Reininger at Reininger's Barbershop back in the day. Neil was Best Man at my parent's wedding, and Joanie was chosen with a group of ladies as the Bride's assistants at the wedding reception in the Legion Hall. My dad created numerous scrapbooks containing newspaper articles, snapshots, and individual pictures. Neil was in many of the books. Extending deep condolences to the McGonigle family; and to express an RIP to Joanie.
