  3. A Great man and a fine teacher whom I had the luck of getting in grade school in the 3rd and the 5th grades. Tony always liked young people and gave me many fond memories.

  4. I only have the fondest memories of Mr. Orecchio. I won’t forget his lively personality and the way he always called me “Runkel”. Please accept my deepest and sincerest sympathies, especially my friends Lisa and Mark. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers.
