In Memory Of Maggie Smillie

June 19, 1988 – November 12, 2007

Maggie and her dad Matt Smillie

The Tailgater2000 community has lost a dear member of our family. Matt Smillie's daughter,
Maggie, was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis shortly after birth. Through the years
she warmed our hearts, inspiring us with her courage and strength. This memorial page
was created in memory of Maggie Smillie, who lost her battle
with CF on November 12, 2007, surrounded by her family and friends.

A Team Prayer for Maggie, by Gerry McCarthy:

MAGGIE

As a little girl she was nicknamed Magpie
With a beautiful smile and those big blue eyes
Though she may have been dealt a hand tough to win
She lived her life by going all in

Maggie you could say was small in stature
With a personality that had the ability to capture
And a spirit so bold you could not deny it
With enough courage and strength to belong to a giant

Magz would want us to remember the fun
The Red Sox World Series and the Super Bowl runs
The times that she shared with her family & friends
I hope the stories to be told never will end

Now Matt & Janet should truly be proud
Just take a look at the size of this crowd
The values and love in the little girl they nourished
Grew into a soul that really did flourish

So I’m proud to stand here & say that I knew her
To say she was special no words could be truer
And if we all take away just a few of her traits
This world that she left us could be a much better place
