Salvatore Travatello Obituary
to Briana, Christian, Connor,
and Patrick. Treasured godfather to Laura Maciag.
Known affectionately as "Mr. Trav," Salvatore was a beacon of light in the Glen Cove School District and community for many decades. As a School Athletic Director, Physical Education and Driver's Ed teacher and a beloved Baseball, Basketball and Bowling coach, Sal took great pride in mentoring and inspiring his students to be their best selves. In 1975 he was recognized as "Coach of the Year" by the Daily News and the New York State Coaches Association for his exceptional leadership of the Glen Cove High School 1975 Nassau County Championship Baseball team. A Glen Cove Hall of Fame inductee, U.S. Army veteran, golf enthusiast and all around great guy, Salvatore will be remembered for his wit, his voice and his love for his family, friends and students. The family will receive friends on Friday, Oct. 31, at Dodge-Thomas Funeral Home in Glen Cove from 3-7pm. Funeral Mass will be held at the Church of Saint Rocco on Monday, Nov. 3, at 10am, followed by interment at St. Charles Cementery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to GenYouthNow.org or the Glen Cove Community Scholarship Fund.
