Funeral Service for Manny Kalfell

A visitation will be held on Thursday (Jan. 28) from noon to 8 p.m. for Manny Kalfell, the former Montana State football player who died at his home on Sunday. Funeral services will held at 10 a.m. on Saturday at the MSU Strand Union Ballroom with interment to follow at Sunset Hills Cemetery.

Here is the statement that Montana State Athletic Director Peter Fields issued earlier this week:

"We are deeply mournful with the loss of Manny Kalfell. He was a treasured member of the Bobcat Athletics family. He was admired for his hard work and dedication, and was liked by all because of his smile and spirit of individuality. We extend our sympathy to Manny's family and friends. 

"The University is offering counseling for any student-athlete or staff member who wishes. This is a tragic loss, and is felt by our entire Department and University. We will pass along information about the arrangements when that information becomes available."
