Michael E. Dupre

I just heard of your loss. I hope you are doing well. Jim R

I am sorry to hear of Mike's passing, though glad he had friends and family close. I remember well when the AAUP chapter agreed to give him the Distinguished Faculty Award.

I am so very surprised and sorry to hear of Mike's passing. We loved to see his smiling face in yoga and listen to his stories of family, travel and a life well lived. Our condolences to Fran and family. You are in our thoughts and prayers and we hope you find peace in your cherished memories of him.

Dupre Family--Over the years I had the pleasure of interacting with Mike from time to time during his workouts at Saint Anselm with Professor Sweetland. He was always wearing an infectious smile when he talked about his teaching days and even bigger when he spoke if his family.

I was a nursing student at St. A's who worked for Professor Dupre in the Sociology Department for three years and over the summers at St. A's and I had him for a professor a couple of times.

Fran and Family --- so sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Fran and family, I am so sorry to hear of Mike's passing. I only knew Mike from being one of my customers at Pappy's but over the years I thought of him and you Fran, as friends. I know I haven't seen you in a few weeks and I was worried but I was hoping my worries were unfounded. My deepest sympathy to Fran and family. It sounds like Mike has touched many lives, mine included.

To Fran and family: Sending sympathy and thoughts your way. Mike was such a nice man, and you must have heavy hearts with his passing. You all have great memories. Hold those close as you move forward. Thinking of you all, LHL
