The Manhattan College alumni community shares the grief, and is now praying for our fellow alumni and the family at this time. The Jasper Jottings community that I personally can reach has been informed. 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.
