Meus pesâmes à família do Dr. Menges. Foi uma grande perda.

O falecimento do Dr. Menges deixa uma lacuna irreparável para aqueles que tiveram a honra de privar dos seus conhecimentos, de sua lucidez e generosidade em ajudar o próximo, mesmo que esse "próximo" se localizasse noutro país, tão distante quanto o Brasil.
Nós, brasileiros, perdemos um amigo e um Mestre, que tanto nos alertou e ajudou no combate ao comunismo.
Certamente ele está agora auferindo os louros pela sua incansável luta aqui na terra, e Deus deve tê-lo recebido de pé, em sua última morada.
Muito triste com a perda, me solidarizo à dor da família que agora vê-se privada da companhia deste guerreiro, deste grande homem.
À família, minhas mais sentidas condolências.
Abraços fraternos,

Dr. Menges has been a trustful friend of liberty and denounced fiercely the evils of totalitarianism, specially upon my country.
Brazilians owe him an immense debt of gratitude.
May God receive him in His Glory !!!

Constantine was always brilliant and incisive in his analysis of foreign policy and national security issues. It was an honor to be associated with him for some twenty-five years. The nation has lost a great patriot; a man who loved his country and served it with passion, determination and commitment.

Please accept my deepest condolences for your loss. I had a brief opportunity to work with Dr. Menges in the mid-1980s, and I became deeply impressed with his knowledge, humanity, commitment, and his kindness. My prayers are with you.
