Mr. Dunleavy was a very good teacher at Curtis
and very generous. One time my friend and I ran into him at the U.S. Open and he got us free food and drink from the stand he was managing. RIP Pat

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 mans death diminishes me". We are sorry for your loss.
