Alumni Memoriam

As part of our ongoing commitment to keep alumni connected to the College and their classmates, the
Alumni Office maintains this list of recent alumni
deaths, as made known to our office. We hope this
page serves as timely notice of the passing of friends
and classmates.

Our tradition of informing alumni of a classmate's
death via postcard continues. In addition, detailed
obituaries are published in both the print and online versions of Holy Cross Magazine.

The Holy Cross Alumni Office has recently learned
of the deaths of the following alumni:
