Jay, Patrick, Bernard and your families:
We were terribly saddened to hear of your loss. No words ever seem sufficient at times such as these; however, we, as part of the Notre Dame family, want you to know you can reach out to us. Do not hesitate to let others know of an errand to be run, a call to be returned, a chore to be done. Allowing others to be of help to you is a shared kindness to those who care for you.
