Mr. Genetti was one of my all-time favorite teachers at NCHS. He challenged us to dig deeper, think harder, and believe in ourselves. His legacy casts a long shadow.

Our friendship started in 1951 with Church League Basketball and continued until his graduation in 1959. He was the best boyhood friend anyone could ever have. God Bless you, Pauly. My Deepest Sympathy to his Family.

Thank you Mr. Genetti. You inspired me to become a clinical psychologist. I also remember your sense of humor and infectious laugh.
