Hugh John Maguire, a native Angeleno born on April 22, 1933 to Alfred Leo Maguire and Margaret Boyle Maguire, passed away peacefully on May 18, 2023 of natural causes at home, surrounded by his family. He was the loving husband of Maryly Roney Maguire, a fellow student at UC Berkeley in the 1950s; the father of Kathleen, Hugh Jr. (Tom Lindblade), Patrick, and Maryly (David Koch); and a mentor to six grandchildren who dubbed him Boppy: Emiley, Molly, Grady, Charlie, Grace, and Jack.

A child actor in the early 1940s, with roles in over thirty films, including Leave Her to Heaven and Going My Way, Hugh grew up on the Paramount lot, throwing a football with Bing Crosby and learning to play chess with Merle Oberon. Hugh went on to athletic success as a quarterback at Loyola High School and CAL, under legendary coach Pappy Waldorf, before receiving his commission in the USAF as a jet flight instructor. After serving his country, Hugh built a successful career as an investment banker, while he and Maryly grew their family.

Well-known in the Los Angeles business and social communities, Hugh was an iconic, well-loved, caring human being who believed in a firm handshake and the importance of helping others. Hugh is deeply missed, and we hope many of his attributes live on in all of us.

A Memorial Mass and Celebration of Life is planned for family and friends on July 11, 2023 at 11 a.m. in Los Angeles. For further information, email MaguireUC@gmail.com. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Homeboy Industries, www.homeboyindustries.org.
