So saddened to hear Mr. D has left us! I too was one of his students who was very frustrated with the fact of having to do my Robert Frost report over 12 times before receiving an "A" from Mr. D! He definitely taught me life lessons that I would never understand until I became older! Thoughts and prayers go out to his family!

Mr. D was an amazing teacher who truly cared for his students in so many ways ! My thoughts are with his family!

One of the most wonderful teachers I ever had and will always remember Rest in Peace Mr. D your work is done here.Will miss you gracefully

I have wonderful memories of Mr. Devino as a teacher. He taught me life lessons as well as academics. A wonderful teacher.

A great teacher, who I failed to appreciate as a student, but had come to admire when I grew up and realized what he had taught me. My condolences to his family and friends.

It was a pleasure to work with a true professional. I especially liked that his handwriting was almost as bad as mine, perhaps the only area in which I had an advantage. You knew how good he was by listening to his students and reading his comments on their papers. He was an honorable man.
