My sincere condolences to the family. May the God who binds up the brokenhearted and comforts all who mourn, sustain your family during this difficult time - Isaiah 61:1, 2.

Jack was a very special person. We were classmates and graduates of the Class of 1961, the first to graduate from the new Calvert Hall. His friendship, kindness, and camaraderie will be greatly missed. I have lost a very special friend. May you rest in God's peace, John. You will always be a great member of the Calvert Hall Community.

Murt was a one of a kind person. We first met at Little Flower CYO dances; we both attended Calvert Hall and eventually became dorm mates at U of MD. Murt was always positive and a great friend to all he knew. He will sorely be missed by those who knew him well.

My sincerest condolences
