Carlo Di Maio was a great teacher and a welcoming host. I met Lara and Irene on Delgado Drive where Carlo cooked pizza for the entire class of Italian 51 the summer of 1975. I still have my notebooks from that class because they include recipes for ricotta cheese and other dishes Il Profesore thought important to our intro to Italian! Boun viaggio, Carlo!!

Lara and family, My sincere condolences for the loss of Dr. Di Maio. I loved him from the day I met him in Classical Mythology. He was passionate about the topic and infused humor and stories that kept my Freshman mind focused on the subject at hand. He was such a pleasure to know. Love, Brenna

I was so honored that he drove to Mississippi to attend my very small wedding even though I no longer worked at SLU. I...
