Mr. Yacone was my teacher at IEY and then my counselor at New Rochelle High School. He was a sweet and gentle man. I was sorry to hear about his passing. He will be missed.

To The Yacone Family,
I was the secretary in House I at NRHS for 30 years. Mr. Yacone was one of the counselors in the office when I first went to work at the school. He was a pleasure to work with. I just retired after 30 years in that same office, but still have fond memories of those early years at the high school. RIP Mr. Yacone! A true gentleman who always showed respect and kindness to everyone. May he fly on Eagle’s Wings straight to heaven.
