Dear Sherri,
My thoughts and sorrow are with you. Georgia and I are so sorry to hear about your husband passing away. I know he was a wonderful husband and father and he will surely be missed.

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.
