My deepest condolences to the Grogan family. I had the opportunity to meet Jack and am most grateful. As a fellow Manhattan College Jasper (Class of 71'), I believe I can say he will be missed by our great family. There is a hole in our universe today because Jack has left us and he enriched our lives by his presence when he walked among us. Yet, who he was lives on through his wonderful family that he loved so dearly and the memories of him that we will continue to share. May God's blessings be upon his loved ones.

The Manhattan College alumni community shares the grief, and is now praying for our fellow alumni and the family at this time. The Alumni Office has been informed. As well as the Jasper Jottings community that I personally can reach. We are all a little poorer now. "No man is an island, entire of itself ... any man's death diminishes me". We are sorry for your loss.

Our most sincere condolences to all the Grogans; it seems impossible that such a larger than life man can be gone. All of you are in our prayers.
