FERRARO--Geraldine. Marymount Manhattan College mourns the passing of its distinguished alumna, Geraldine Ferraro '56. She led a life of service - to her family, to her community, to her nation. Her dignity and dedication to her principles, her commitment and courage to be the trailblazer for women in public service will not be lost with her passing. Her path-breaking accomplishments will be cherished by those who knew her, and will be admired by those who will continue to benefit from her life well-lived. Judson R. Shaver, Ph.D. President Marymount Manhattan College, Louis A. Martarano, Chairman, Board of Trustees, Marymount Manhattan College
