Mr. Marcozzi's laugh and compassion were as big as his heart. He was well-loved at SHS, and shared smiles with everyone. He always brightened my day. His long life tells me that his compassion carried a positive light in everything he did. Please know he will be remembered by thousands of students whose lives were changed by his example. My thoughts are with you.
