Michael Thomas Maginnis passed away peacefully 10-10-24 in his Neahkahnie home, surrounded by loved ones.
Michael’s surviving relatives include his wife Tela Skinner, his sons Jaya and Taurin Skinner-Maginnis, his daughters-in-love, Whitney Handrich and Susa Lynne, his sister-in-law Shirley Murray; nephews Bill Maginnis and family, Chris Murray and family; nieces Jennifer Hooley and family, MaryAnne Gates and family. Michael’s parents (Charles and Thelma Maginnis) and both brothers (James Murray and David Maginnis) preceded him in death. Michael’s extended family also included in-laws Rosemary and Roger Wolfin, and Carolyn and Mike Stevens.
Michael also wished to acknowledge his many friends, who are too numerous to list. He and Tela were blessed by their inclusion in the community of Manzanita and surrounding area and by their many friends from the Portland area and beyond.
By nature introverted and introspective, he often reflected on how his conduct impacted others.
He always strove to improve and grow spiritually, to show kindness to all. He felt blessed with an abundance of love from family and community.
In lieu of flowers, contributions to the Pine Grove Community Center in Manzanita would make Michael happy. A celebration of his life will be announced later.
