Not sure what to say?

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.

Dearest Pat, Jim and all the family, Our deepest sympathy on the loss of your Dad. Please accept these words in our absence:
"You are with me, that is good. You are gone--the goodness remains".
His goodness remains with each of you.
Love and prayers,
Ken and Diane Backlund and
family.

To Patricia and family. I am sad to read of Bill's passing. I have fond memories of Bill and Lucille and the Burke family from our family gatherings in Holyoke so many years ago.

Patty Lou and Michael. Our family lived next door to yours in Boudoin Village and our parents hung out together in the early 1950's. In 1979, I had part time job hauling newsprint rolls by truck to the Union presses. I took the time to visit your working Dad and he remembered me as well as the whole family. He took me into the cafeteria and we chatted a while. Our family sends deepest condolences to your family. The O'Brien family
