I loved my Uncle Girvin very much. He and Aunt Donna gave my sisters and I such wonderful memories. Time spent with cousins Keith and Girv at the house in Coatesville so much fun! The house was full of laughter. Memories of family events Uncle Girvin would videotape for all of us. He and my dad were good buddies and now they’re talking shop in heaven. He was so smart and had a great sense of humor. I will miss him. Love to my Aunt Donna , Keith and Girv and families. ❤️

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. I have very fond memories of Mr. McAllister from my childhood. I spent almost every weekend and several weeks over the summer with Keith at their home. Girvin and Donna always made me feel very welcome. It was like I was just an extended part of the family. I will always remember him as an extremely intelligent and very kind man.
