Condolences to the family. Professor Nick was like a ray of sunshine. Professor Nick's warm, pleasant, and funny demeanor made those long evening/night classes at Hoftra University Health Science Master's Program go by so quickly.

I'm so sad to hear about Mr. Castrataro's passing. "Mr. C" was a great principal at Westlake Middle School and would scare me with his yelling yet make me laugh with his sense of humor. He truly loved every student and made sure we did our best. Rest in peace, Mr. C.

Mr. C was a great man who lead with booming voice but a loving heart! He was my principal at Westlake MS from 1984-1986. He will be missed. RIP
