The obituary described Ed Kelce as Maureen’s “beloved friend” and detailed the deep companionship they shared in recent years. It noted that Maureen had developed a love for football later in life, often attending games and concerts with Ed.

Their time together was marked by travel, laughter, and a shared enthusiasm for life. She was also fondly remembered for her warmth, her love for hosting memorable gatherings, and the presence of her loyal dog, Butch.

Maguire’s relationship with Ed also brought her into contact with public figures like Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce’s girlfriend. In a February 2024 interview with the Los Angeles Times, Ed recounted a humorous moment when Maguire jokingly referred to Ed as “my boyfriend” while Swift posed for a photo with him.

This story underscored not only Ed’s candid personality but also the humorous dynamic between him and Maguire, who clearly enjoyed being part of the lively scenes surrounding the Kelce family.

Maureen Maguire is survived by her three children, six grandchildren, and two siblings. The obituary requested that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Penn Heart Transplant Fund. Her funeral service is scheduled for August 7 at St. John Vianney Church in Gladwyne, Pennsylvania. Through heartfelt memories and shared laughter, Ed Kelce’s tribute to Maguire paints a portrait of a woman who lived with joy, connection, and love.
