I wish I had known sooner. My thoughts and prayers and deepest condolences to the family of Dr. Mazzarella. I had you my freshman year at LaSalle University in 2017. Every single class when I was early, we would talk about the eagles and how excited we both were about them hopefully going to the Super Bowl. You were such a caring person and an amazing professor. You wanted the best for all your students, you were always there to help me with any questions regarding the course material. You were a professor I wish I had for every class. You were one of a kind, and you will be missed dearly. My thoughts and prayers to your and your family Dr. Mazzarella, thank you for all that you did for me.

Mr. Mazzarella was a great teacher! We all loved him at holy family... Easily one of my favorites of my four years there!! His classes were not easy but he was always willing to give help when you needed it.

I had Jim for a teacher in Economics at LaSalle in the late 1980's. He was a great teacher and a gentleman. I will pray for him. Cathy Kennedy

Jim, I miss you dearly. Thank you for everything. You will be missed more than you ever knew. No one would have done for me what you did. No son would have done more for his parents. I hope you are happy. I know God greeted you as his faithful servant. Love you and miss our daily chats, coffee, and watching tv.
