Richard, Rose, and Aunt Min's house was always home to me. They took care of me since I was just a kid. Taking care of them lately has been a great privilege. Rose, we will still have our long phone chats. Christine, Michael, Jessica and Tim, you are the next generation of family to put up with me. Luke, Will, Jake, Sarah, Emma, and Ben, you are treasures tucked in my heart. Aunt Min and Richard are now nestled in Jesus' arms. Memory eternal.

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.
