My thoughts & prayers got out to Ron's family. He was my homeroom teacher at SH my senior year. Always enjoyed talking with him. A good coach as well. He was an inspiration to all the young lifes he touched.

I send my heartfelt condolences to all of the Tocchini Family. Ron was a kind and thoughtful man who impacted many lives through his teaching and coaching. I am so sorry I was not able to attend the funeral mass because of work. My prayers are with you all.

My heartfelt sympathy to Fred and the entire Tocchini family. I became friends with Ron approximately twenty years ago. Aside from being a kind and gentle person, Ron was above all a respectful person. He treated everyone with respect. Rest in peace Buddy.

I took Spanish 2 from Ron at Marin Catholic in 1977. I had taken an intensive Spanish course the previous summer in Ensenada, Mexico, so he let me work independently on Spanish 3 material, reading Don Quijote and working with him after school.
