Dear Musante Family,
Growing up Jack was more like a uncle to me than a cousin. To this day I think of him and include him in my prayers. The parties he threw on Yonkers Ave were second to none.
I miss you all and would love to see my cousins again.
May God be with you all,

Chris Canepa

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.

On a more personal note, I recognize the name. My Mom, "Micky", always spoke highly and kindly of him, before she too passed. I didn't know he was a Jasper. I'm sure they will have a lot of "phone stories" to share. I hope that time heals us all.
