Salvatore V. LaDuca

Mr. LaDuca was my favorite teacher from Palmer School Days, maybe all school days. I always felt lucky that I had him for 2 years, 5th and 6th grade. He made classes interesting and encouraged everyone to do well. I always enjoyed seeing him over the years. Condolences to the family

I'm so sorry to learn of the death of Mr. LaDuca. He was my 4th grade teacher at Palmer elementary in 1974 and was one of my favorite teachers there. He was definitely a bright spot in my Palmer Elementary experience- a terrific teacher, I remember really enjoying going to school that year. You could tell he genuinely enjoyed teaching and cared very much about his students. He was a very caring and warm person. To his family, I'd like to express my condolences for your loss, but I also...

Lina, when God calls His children home, His angels come to take them by the hand, leading them along a place of peace and light. As the Lord welcomes Sal home to perfect peace, may He also comfort you and lead you through your sorrow.

Sal will be greatly missed, he was a wonderful man.

My prayers are with you in your loss. Sal was such a sweet, kind, respected gentleman whom I loved teaching with. He was the epitome of professionalism and class.
He and John Giardiniere , another wonderful man,are surely reunited in heaven and loved as much as they were on earth.

Mr.Laduca was the best neighbor I could have ever asked for. He was not only my neighbor, but he was like a grandfather to me. Mr.Laduca always had a smile on his face and was always willing to help. I know your watching down on us right now.You maybe gone but you will never be forgotten. R.I.P.

Mr. Deluca was a favorite teacher of mine in elementary school in the mid 1970s, I believe 6th grade. I know many others feel the same way. Condolences to his family and friends. RIP and thank you for your knowledge, patience and kindness...

Mr. LaDuca was the one teacher that everyone wanted to have as their teacher. He was bright, insightful and helped shape many of today's leaders. He will be missed.

Lina and Family

We will miss Sam. He was a wonderful guy. Lionel and I always enjoyed celebrating our anniversary with you. We truly loved him and we love you. Sorry I cant be there with you at this time. I will see you in August. Love you always.

We will miss my cousin Sal dearly. Our family always enjoyed visiting with Sal and Lina every year while vacationing at my parents house in Palmer. Thoughts and prayers go out to Lina and the immediate family.
