John Bard McNulty

I did not know him but am sharing this with the Shanghai American School Association (SASA) alumni newsletter. I know at least one centennarian a class ahead of his, retired in California, who would surely be interested.

I took a course called Writing for Publication with Professor McNulty and, to this day, it remains one of my favorite courses at Trinity. I remember him as a kind and gentle man who was very skillful in imparting his knowledge to us and improving our skills.

He had a marvelously long and very productive life.

Dear Henry and Sarah,
I have just learned of your father, the Bard's death.
At 99 he lived a full and rich life--and his legacy lives on in
you his two amazing children.
He was an inspiration to me, for his scholarship (the Bayeux Tapestry),
for his kindness and generosity, and for his friendship with my parents
My father died in July at 94. They must be ripping it up together
in whatever heaven is for them. I am sure it is a very literate place.
My condolences to...

Deepest sympathy. Ironic that I just 'met' him last week. Truly and amazing person.

Dear McNulty family,
Prof. McNulty was my advisor at Trinity in the early 1980s. He was so intelligent and so friendly, and I remember feeling extremely proud when the Courant ran an article on his Bayeux Tapestry work. He enriched my experience by inviting me to be a TA in his literary modes class, which he taught with Prof. John Dando, and by supporting my internship at WFSB. I used materials of his from a poetry course I took when teaching poetry myself to high school and college...

Henry, Sarah and Family: I am so sorry for the loss of your Father. He was so well know in the Glastonbury area and he will be missed. Judy Huggard Hubbard

Sarah and Henry and family, please accept my condolences on the death of your father. I am pleased to have known such an accomplished,and nice, man. You have my deepest sympathy.
