Sad News: Passantino Passes
It is with a sorrowful heart that I share the news with you that my teacher, George Passantino, died yesterday from chronic heart disease.
A memorial/funeral service will be held on Thursday, 11am on at Sacred Heart Church on Church Street in Georgetown, CT.
If you wish to send condolences, they may be addressed to:
Mrs. Bobbi Passantino
30 Rising Ridge Road
Ridgefield, CT 06877
Mr. Passantino inspired many of us. The artist during a portrait demonstration from the model is posted here. His spirit will live on.
Sadly,
Jeanine

Do the good really die young, or do we just feel more deeply the loss of their special company and counsel, knowing how precious and rare their visits are in our lives?
Both, I suppose.

Thanks
Thank you Mari and Mike for your kind words. I am finding it difficult to accept that he is actually gone.
Note: Bobbi is George's widow.
