I was a student in Joe Testo's Secondary Education Administration Class at SUNY Albany back in the 80's. I only had him for one class, but never forgot him. He had an almost pastoral manner in his teaching and offered the best advice that I ever heard regarding difficult and impossible situations - just try to make things a little better. So simple and yet so true. My deepest sympathy to his family, but take comfort in knowing that his was a life well lived.

I was blessed to have Dr. Testo as my sixth grade teacher at TPS-18. I believe we were his first assignment after he left the Army. He without a doubt became one of the most significant human beings to influence my life. The finest teacher I ever had. He really cared and tried to help each of his students. An amazing man. Dr.Testo, I know you are with God, Please say a prayer for us.

Respectfully, Jerry Brown
