Bobbie and family,
I am so sorry to hear of your husband's passing. He was a favorite teacher of mine. Me and you worked together at the phone company many years ago and I remember when you said to me "Mr. Moretti from MPJHS is my husband"! You guys were a dynamite couple and I always admired how much fun you had as husband and wife! May he rest in peace and rock on! My heartfelt sympathy to you and yours ...

I remember Mr. Moretti very well as my science teacher in 1975. He was one of my favorites. I can still see him walking around in, I believe, a grey lab coat every day.

The Insabella family (4 of us) all had Mr. Moretti as a science teacher. He was a favorite to all of us, including so many other students. I also had the opportunity to spend time with him, as I traveled with the wrestling team as scorekeeper. One year we made it to the State finals!! He was always a pleasure to talk to and was lucky enough to run into him in Monmouth Beach. He will me sadly missed. Sincerest condolences to his family and close friends.

Though we never met - I am confiadent that Alfred was a great guy and father to Mike - as Mike represents Alfred and the family well. I am sure Alfred had a lot of pride in everything his son (and my good friend) has accomplished. Sorry to hear of "Al's" passing. Best wishes to the Moretti family.
