Oreste Renato Rondinella

When I was 22 (I am now 60) I was given Dr. Rondilla's name from priest that recognized I needed counseling. Dr. Rondinella was like a father to me. He helped me so much throughout my life and was always there for me to listen. He truly was a wonderful person. When my insurance didn't cover him, he didn't care that. He only cared about helping me. He will never be forgotten. One thing I would see every time I sent for my session was a little sign that read, The greatest gift a father can...

My mother, Rita Brown, worked at Newbridge Road School with teacher and friend Mr .Rondinella, and was witness to the romance of Allegra and Orie. She missed him very much when he moved to New Jersey and his position at Seton Hall. He was very well thought of in the East Meadow School District. Claire Brown Sica

Dr. Rondinella, was a beloved teacher and mentor for " our group" of woman in the early 60´s on the downtown Newark campus of Seton Hall. He knew us well and we got to know Allegra and we babysit for the children. I was there when Julia and then Orie were born. Tommy, Anne Marie, Allegra, Julia and Orie your parents had a great impact on all of us. Praying that you and your families find comfort and peace. Joyce Pecora Colella Frost

How can we ever forget the good times we had together, especially our camping trips with our families. You and Allegra have helped so many people. You are now in our prayers. We always pray for Allegra. Charlie and Lee Rooney
