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.

Our deepest condolences to you, Judy, & your entire family. We grew up with Billy in Middle Village. Joe & Billy were in grammar school together & I was a friend of Eileen's & we also knew his parents quite well. We pray, that in time, as your grief subsides, you will be filled with wonderful memories. All of you will be in our thoughts & prayers.

Fondly,
Joanne (Ventre) & Joe Grdinich
