Dear Mrs. LoCicero and Family;

Having taken Mr. LoCicero's commercial courses at VHS I wondered where it would take me. I remembered like it was yesterday, Ben would say accounting revolves around this principle, "A = L + P"
I have never forgotten those words, to a point it scared me to be sure I did the right thing.
After a few false starts, it has and his words guided me for which I am so greatful for his guidance.

Dear Mrs. Locicero,
I just learned of Dr. LoCicero's passing through a colleague and regret that I could not attend the services. I greatly admired your husband and benefited from his wisdom. He loved his students and his staff, and he left the world a better place.

That is sad news to learn of Ben LoCicero's death. And yet how wonderful it was to have Ben as our honored guest at our 50th high school reunion September 13th, 2008; and to see him enjoying himself fully. We had a great conversation about his principles as a principal -- and we found him to be very engaging and open about his experiences in education. We were surprised to learn that he wasn't that much older than we were at the time of our high school graduation in 1958. He was one of...
