The pain will always be there, but it will lessen with time. The memories will help you get through the difficulties of life. The look in your children's eyes or their simple mannerism will remind you he is always near by.

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.
