Joseph C. DeVita

Mr. Devita dedicated to education of students like myself. I graduated in Class of 1969 from Brien McMahon High School. Our teachers, guidance counselors and principals gave us our foundation for life. Thank you Mr. Devita.

My deepest condolences on the loss of Mr. Devita, to the whole Devita family.

Sincerely,

Diane Saltarelli

My sympathies go to the family of Mr. DeVita. I always think about his phrase"mutual respect and dignity'.
May he rest in peace.

I was never afraid to go to the principal's office when I was at Brien McMahon - because we (students) all knew Mr. DeVita was a kind, funny, fair man. I attended McMahon in the 70's and with him there, felt safe, even if the times were "tumultuous"! Rest in Peace, Mr. DeVita.

so sorry for your lose. i had mr devita at mcmahon for 4 years 66-70 and he got to know me by my first name when i had to go to his office. even though i was in trouble, he would always just smile and say "you again'. he was the nicest man. always far. my he rest in peace

Mr. Devita, One of the nicest persons to have known while attending the Ben Franklin school. Best principal ever. God Bless the Family in their loss.

I will always remember Mr. Devita, always pleasant and fair. He was the best principal ever. God Bless the family.

I shall always remember Mr. DeVita from my school days at Benjamin Franklin Junior High School and Brien McMahon High School. He was a very intelligent and kind hearted Educator and Counselor with a "down to earth" attitude. He will be missed by all those who loved and respected him. God bless him and his family.

Sincerely,
