Hold the date:

By the way, the Retreat this year is scheduled for September 21, 22, and 23 at the Retreat House in Riverdale.

{Begin Quote}

One of the computers on which Melin installed SETI @ Home is his wife's laptop, which was stolen from the couple's Minneapolis home Jan. 1.

{End Quote}

Trying to do good (searching for ET) brings good (finding lost laptop) back to oneself. A modern example of the Principle of Karma. What goes around comes around. I need lessons like this to remind me that the Intelligent Designer want me to spread the good. Sometimes I even succeed. I’m sure my fellow alums need a lot less reminding.

Reflect well on our alma mater, this week, every week, in any and every way possible, large or small. God bless.

Dear John,

          Today's NY Times has an Obituary on page B7 for Jerry Girard age 74, (also know as Gerard Alfred Suglia). The Obit states that he attended Manhattan College, but I do not find him under either name in my records. I would guess a Class of either 1953 or 1954.

         May He Rest In Peace.

WPIX sports broadcaster dead at 74
SECTION: STATE AND REGIONALDATELINE: VALHALLA N.Y.

Jerry Girard, a WPIX-TV sportscaster for 21 years, has died of cancer. He was 74.

Girard, whose nightly reports were characterized by a dry, caustic sense of humor, died on Sunday at Westchester Medical Center, the station said on its newscast Monday.

He was WPIX’s sports broadcaster from 1974 to 1995, after working as a news writer for the station for seven years.

Girard was “a caring friend and a seasoned professional who looked out for younger colleagues,” the station said.

Born in Gerard Alfred Suglia in Chicago, Girard grew up in the Bronx and attended Manhattan College.

A celebration of his life was scheduled for Saturday at Fred H. McGrath & Son Funeral Home in Bronxville.

He is survived by two sisters.

Jerry Girard of Bronxville, former WPIX sportscaster, dies
BYLINE: Nicole Neroulias
SECTION: NEWS; Pg. 2B

BRONXVILLE - Jerry Girard, a New York City sports broadcaster known for his deadpan wit, died Sunday of cancer at Westchester Medical Center. The Bronxville resident was 74.

Girard worked as a weeknight sports anchor on WPIX-TV Channel 11 from 1974 to 1995, when he resigned rather than switch to weekend duty. He was replaced by Sal Marchiano.

“He was very popular with the viewers, very popular in the newsroom,” Karen Scott, news director for WPIX-TV Channel 11, said yesterday. “He was a hard worker, and he definitely knew his sports.”

The Bronx native, born Gerard A. Suglia, went on the air for the first time at the age of 41, after seven years as a news writer for the station. The Manhattan College alumnus’ early radio career included stints in South Carolina, Pennsylvania and Indiana.

In addition to rooting for his beloved Yankees, Girard was a boxing, basketball and horseracing fan. He liked to read and play pool.

Girard lived in Bronxville for many years. During his retirement, he continued actively following professional sports and listening to the music of Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald, his family said.

He did not have children.

A celebration of his life will be held from noon to 5 p.m. Saturday at Fred H. McGrath & Son Funeral Home, 20 Cedar St., Bronxville.

Friends may make memorial contributions in Girard’s name to: Hospice and Palliative Care of Westchester, 95 S. Broadway, Fourth Floor, White Plains, NY 10601.

Jerry Girard, a sports broadcaster for WPIX-TV in New York from 1974 to 1995, died Sunday in Hawthorne, N.Y. He was 74.

He died of esophageal cancer at Westchester Medical Center, his family said.

Girard, originally Gerard Alfred Suglia, was born Aug. 6, 1932, in Chicago. He was reared in the Bronx and attended Manhattan College.

He was a disc jockey in Myrtle Beach, S.C.; Gary, Ind.; and Altoona, Pa., before returning to New York as a record librarian at WNEW radio. He moved to WPIX as a news writer before becoming the station’s sports voice.

His nightly television appearances to describe the day’s sports happenings were characterized by frequent acidic commentary, invariably delivered with a straight face.

He is survived by two sisters.

FRANCIS KOELLNER, 89
SECTION: OBITS; Pg. A11

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. - Francis (Frank) A. Koellner, a lifetime Sunnyside resident, Staten Island history buff and a former chief shipping clerk for Maersk in Newark, N.J., died early yesterday in his home after a long bout with cancer. He was two weeks away from his 90th birthday.

Mr. Koellner was reared across the street from the home in which he died. An avid woodworker, he built the home himself before his family moved there in 1951.

An enthusiast of Staten Island history, he imparted much of his knowledge of the borough to his children and grandchildren, the source of his greatest joy, his family said.

Mr. Koellner was also the oldest active alumnus of the former Augustinian Academy on Grymes Hill, where he graduated in 1936. Afterward, he attended Manhattan College, earning an engineering degree before enlisting in the Army in 1943.

He served as the priority civilian chief in the enlisted reserve in Washington state, and had the rank of sergeant major when he left the reserve in 1946.

Mr. Koellner married the former Katherine Krebbs three years later.

He worked as a sales representative for automobile makers Packard, Cadillac and General Motors before taking a job with Maersk in 1960. He retired in 1991, at the age of 75.

Tom Conway, president of the Augustinian Alumni Association, said Mr. Koellner always attended alumni meetings and was a wealth of knowledge about the Grymes Hill school.

“We were always taught when we went to school to be Augustinian gentlemen,” said Conway. “He truly defined what it was to be an Augustinian gentleman.”

In addition to his wife of 57 years, Mr. Koellner is survived by his daughters, Joyce Flattry and Deborah Bruni; sons Jay and Gregory Koellner and nine grandchildren.

The funeral will be Tuesday from the Harmon Funeral Home, West Brighton, with a mass at 10 a.m. in Our Lady of Good Counsel R.C. Church, Tompkinsville, followed by burial in Moravian Cemetery, New Dorp.

Charles Sebastian LaCugna Ph.D.

Charles Sebastian LaCUGNA, Ph.D. What a man, what a life, what a glorious example! Charles was born in Sicily in 1914 and passed through Ellis Island at age six. He was a member of the Christian Brothers de la Salle for fourteen years (1930-1944) and was educated at Manhattan College, Fordham University, St John’s College, the University of Notre Dame, and the University of Washington. He moved to Seattle in 1945 to establish the political science department at Seattle College, now Seattle University. He enjoyed a distinguished forty-year career there as a professor until his retirement in 1987. He served as an arbitrator, mediator and counselor for three decades and authored Introduction to Labor Arbitration (1988). Charles enjoyed a lengthy retirement and was thoroughly engaged in learning, serving others, and deepening his spiritual roots. Few men are as fortunate as Charles, and even fewer are as kind, generous and attentive as he was. We miss his loving presence and wise counsel. Charles died peacefully in Seattle surrounded by his family and a circle of loving friends. He is survived by his beloved Catherine Leahy Mowry, whom he cherished for 59 years; his daughters, Margaret, Mary, Barbara and Teresa; and his son, Joseph. He loved and enriched an extended family that includes his sister, Lucy Yakowenko; sons-in-law, Fred, Terry, Bob and Brian; grandchildren, Peter, Kristine, Shannon, Sarah, Andy, Colin and Graham; and great-grandchildren, Brittany, Marco and Junior. He was pre- deceased by his daughter, Catherine Mowry LaCugna. He extended a warm welcome and easy hospitality to many friends over the years, and this circle of friends mourns our loss. A Celebration of Life Mass will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, March 27, at St. Joseph Catholic Church on Capitol Hill, his spiritual home for more than fifty years. Charles dedicated his life to three great pursuits: family, spirituality, and scholarship. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial contributions to Holy Names Academy, 728-21st Avenue East, Seattle, WA 98112; or the Jesuit Retirement Fund, Box 86010, Portland, OR 97286.

Bill,

Hugh Biens starred at Manhattan Prep, a small school located on one floor of De La Salle Hall on the Manhattan College campus. Biens led the Jasper Prepsters to either a NYC title or the CHSAA final four, quite an achievement. The scuttlebutt was that Manhattan College recruited Biens but Georgetown’s pitch included a scholarship to law school. I assume that was within NCAA rules ’cause the Jesuits wouldn’t cross the ethics line, would they? The Christian Brothers closed Manhattan Prep around 1971 as they were running out of Brothers to staff the faculty.

Dear Joe,

Hugh was a good one.
