For more information about George’s significant life and ministry, please see the following article from the Episcopal News Service:
George McGonigle was a gift to the church for which I and so many others have received. His life was on of honesty, vision, and service. In my years as a young priest, George was a model for me of an ideal disciple of Jesus who loved the church and God’s mission through it. His wisdom early in my Episcopate will be treasured, as will the lunches, coffees, and moments I was able to share with him. In my life and ministry I have desired to take the very best of what I learned from George and apply it to the Diocese of Texas and my ministry outside of it. I am a grateful bishop for his life given to us by God. May his memory be a blessing and may he be missed because of love.
-Bishop C. Andrew Doyle
May his soul, and the souls of all the departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
Amen
