Rest in Peace Father Militello. I will never forget all that I learned from you while attending Sacred Heart. I will never forget what you would tell us "you can take the kid out of sacred heart but you cant take sacred heart out of the kid" That has been true with me I enjoyed my years at Sacred Heart and will send my children to a private catholic school as well...be with god father
