I am so sorry to hear about your Dad. He was such a good man. Our families shared so much in the last 60 years. I read in the obit about his booming voice but all I remember is a soft spoken man (in a sweater). He instilled in all of you such a strong love of family, the need of an education and a strong work ethic. He (and your Mom) did a wonderful job. I know you all must miss him but you have some wonderful memories. My prayers are with you and I think I'll have some ice cream tonight. Love Wanda

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.
