John was one of my closest friends. We shared so much together. Anyone who knew John like I did knew of his love of the theatre.

I know John is in Heaven with his parents and my own parents who also loved John.

Like the rest of us I will truly miss him.

The is a hole in my life.

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.
