Dear Madeline and Family, I have been away from home and just received the news of Bruce's passing. I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Bruce and I have been friends since we joined BCC and enjoyed many rounds of golf together. Please accept my deepest sympathy. May God Bless and Comfort you during this very difficult time.

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.
