John (Jack) R. McGinley, Jr. founded Ballymoney Real Estate in 1987 to manage his commercial real estate, primarily shopping centers….but he is much, much more than a real estate developer.  I had the absolute honor of being mentored by Jack over the past 30+ years and I can say without question that I learned more in15 minutes observing Jack than in a lifetime observing someone else. 

 

He is an attorney by trade, highly regarded, and is truly the consummate counselor, gentlemen, philanthropist, gracious friend and pillar of our wonderful community here in Pittsburgh.  He is fair and just and has always allowed me to do right by our clients and those in our community, regardless of the monetary outcome for Ballymoney.  He has done more for Pittsburgh than anyone will ever know…primarily because he stays so far under the radar.  I owe my entire professional career to Jack and am so very proud to have earned his confidence in taking the reins. 

 

My heartfelt thanks, Jack, for everything.  I will forever be grateful to you, my dear friend.  Flash.
