Not sure what to say?

I'll always remember the times Dr. Quagliano spent with me trying to help with Freshman Chemistry at ND. If it wasn't for him I would never have made it through freshman year. You were very special.

As a Notre Dame freshman, I became closely acquainted with Dr. Q's "unit basis" method. As I went on through engineering, I found it just as applicable to calculations in other scientific fields as it is to chemistry. He was an excellent instructor. RIP.

DR. QUAGLIANO WAS THE FINEST CHEMISTRY TEACHER AND PERSON DURING MY YEARS AT NOTRE DAME(1952-56). HE IS IN MY PRAYERS.

Dr. Q was a wonderful caring person who shared his joy with everyone. He will be missed.

Please pass along my condolences to his family. Dr Quagliano (I spent hours practicing the correct pronunciation) was a beacon of light to those who had the pleasure of spending time with him. He was generous and loved to tip workmen with coin sets from the U.S. Mint. And YES, He always had a funny story to tell, and took great joy in passing knowledge to others. He was a happy person who loved his life and family. He will be sorely missed, by this contractor!
