What an inspiration we've lost. I never got to have Mr. Gatti as an art teacher, but partly due to his influence I became an art educator. The world is missing a person with a fine eye and a big heart. I'll miss you and your big old house. So sorry for your loved ones. Love to you all, Linda Clare

I had the pleasure of having Mr. Gatti as my art instructor from 1968-1972. I have to say that he changed my perception of art and ultimately changed my life. I have been an artist and composed ever since and 40 years later, I still think of the lessons he taught me. He was a great instructor and a wonderful man. Bless you Mr. Gatti.

With deepest homage for a good man and great teacher who gave me so much. Wonder & care. I am grateful to have had Mr. Gatti in my life.

CHS from 76-80and remember Joe G well, loved art class with him!!
