Mr. William P. McGaffigan, of Norwell, passed away on April 4, 2023. He was 81. 

Billy was married to his loving wife Ginny for 57 years and was a longtime resident of Weymouth. Family meant everything to him, and he loved nothing more than to attend the multiple sports, music and dance events of his many children and grandchildren.
