A longtime friend of the family who had great integrity. I was with him at parties he and Ann hosted, holidays , Manhattan basketball,Yankee and NY Met baseball and many other happy events. Bill was an expert at painting, playing card games and coaching . I remember umpiring his CYO softball games. I join with many who pray for Bill, Ann and their loving family. Manhattan College has lost a great supporter. He has left his family with many memories.

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.
