Dear Pat and Family,

My deeepest sympathies on the death of Judge Cavanaugh. I had the honor of working with him in his capacity as a member of the Advisory Board for Northeast Catholic High School. He was a great jurist and an even greater man who faithfully served his family, his church and the people of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
