Merola family. Mr. Merola will be remembered always.. He was a great teacher and coach..our thoughts and prayers are with the family..Mt. Morris Central School Class of 1963

Merola Family - I was stunned and grieved when I heard of Coach Merola passing away. He was like a father to me during my days at Mooney. Though we lost touch during my college days, I always held fond memories of him. Coach was tough when neccessary and gentle went it counted. He had a heart as big as the sky. I will sincerely miss him. My prayers go out the family.

My condolences to the Coach's family. He made an enormous impact on my life. The lasting example he set was you shouldn't chase the "fluff" in life but put your head down and focus on the right goals. I hope God is ready for Coach Merola!
I think I can still name everyone in the Coach's First Mooney Football team from 1964.

Circa 1984 Dave "The Rave" has a great memory of you as my gym coach at FHS. While playing anouncer you introduced me coming to bat. You placed a dollar bill on home plate, challenging me for a home run. I gave you one and collected said bill Pete Rose style. RIP Coach
