We have lost a great man of integrity, compassion, warmth, generosity, and dignity. Tom and I joined St. John's on the very same day in 1997. Since that first day, I considered him my close friend, mentor and role model. For over twenty years, he guided me on many journeys, both professional and personal. He was always there for me. I love him. Wendy and I wish to express our profound condolences to Pat, Tommy and the rest of the family. While we grieve, we also remember the example he left for all of us, one that will never be forgotten
