To the family of Mr. Longo,
I was deeply saddened to read of Mr. Longo's passing. He was my mentor when I student taught in South Colonie at Sand Creek Junior High in the mid-1970s. No one could have asked for a more attentive "master teacher." I learned a great deal from him and attribute part of my 40 year success in the field of teaching to him.
One of my fondest memories of him was his love for Rolo Chewy Caramels in Milk Chocolate. I always think of him when I see them. I also remember his distinct laugh. Viewing the moving video tribute brought back the memory of his smile.
My condolences to his family and friends. May our loving Lord wrap His healing arms around you all as you grieve the loss of this devoted family man and teacher.
Sincerely,
(Professor) Anne L. Chotkowski-Dearing

Tom McLaughlin just drove our car to Apex, NC, and spoke of a friend’s dad, Patrick J. Longo, passing, in our conversation, this afternoon.
I said, Mr. Longo was my 5th grade teacher at West Albany Elementary School! I believe it was his first teaching job and in seeing his photo, yes, that’s him! He was funny, strict, and a vibrant individual! I remember writing, a few times, after school (I was a walker, so I could stay after school), “ I will not talk in class.” He was a very good teacher! He teamed with Mr. Arthur and it was a good year for me.
He may have had a hand in me following the path of becoming a teacher. I taught for 34 years (3rd grade), at Skano Elementary in The Shenendehowa Central School District, and have been retired for 13 years.
I am sorry for your loss, and just wanted to let you know that Mr. Longo, had a positive effect on my life.
Sincerely,
Mary Ann Mahoney

Dear Claudia, and to all of Pats sons and daughters, I am so sorry to hear of Pats passing. The Memorial video was just a beautiful reminder of how much he was loved, and how much he loved his family. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers, and hope that the many happy memories he has created throughout his life can carry you through this difficult time. The Longo household created many happy memories for my own boys who Claudia took such great care of. Bless you all.

It was our great escape. Squeezed between the last days of the school year and the start of summer jobs.
Every June we would pack our family station wagons and head out for a week at the shore.
Ship Bottom…Ocean City…Wildwood…Cape May…Rehoboth…Virginia Beach…The Outer Banks…and more.
Days on the beach and nights exploring the boardwalk…body surfing…swimming out to the sandbars…mini-golf…deep sea fishing (and maybe a lucky catch) …ALL the kids…collecting shells and hermit crabs…fun & games…pasta boiling on the stove.
All our families together… Longo…Sheehan…Rourke…Tvrdik…Trudeau…Teiper…Matteo…Hotis…Durante…Gottwald…Zambardino
The great Oldies tunes (Were they really Oldies back then…!?).
Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
Thanks for all the laughter and joy you shared
Rest in peace, Mr. Longo

Dear Claudia and Family,
We were so sorry to hear of Patrick's passing. He was a wonderful person and a devoted family man. Pat was smart, funny, and always cheerful. I don't think I ever saw him without a smile on his face. I have fond memories of him belting out songs at family weddings and gatherings. Always laughing and joking, always welcoming and happy to see you. That's the way I'll remember him. He was one of a kind. Our deepest sympathy for your loss.

After graduating from college I began my work career in 1963 with Pat Longo and his merry band of pranksters at Lisha Kill. My two years with Pat, Claudia and so many others still linger with me as the happiest, most fun filled years of my life. Pat was special. He was a born leader, an unshakable friend, a brilliant educator and someone who was addicted to illuminating even the darkest moments with merriment and joy. A piece of him will be with me forever.

Dear Claudia and family,
I was so very sorry to hear of Pat’s passing. I was lucky enough to work with Pat for more than a decade during which he served as a mentor and friend to me. Pat dedicated himself to improving the condition of the people around him. His guidance, kindness, dedication and humanity left an indelible mark on me and countless others who had the luck and honor to know him.
I pray that his memory will be a blessing to you all as I know he will always be an angel on your shoulders.
Sincerely,
Patrick Lyons

I wish I could be there in person with you on Friday, but as you know, I live a long ways away now. Please know that I will be thinking about you on Friday...and my good friend, Pat.
Love you all,

I had Mr.longo for 8th grade English..As a young girl I had a crush on him so that helped me to want to do well in his class. He taught me to love doing sentence structuring and I contribute my joy of writing to his dedication to his students and his love of teaching. Thank you Mr Longo

To Claudia and all the beautiful Longo children, I regret not being able to express my condolences in person as I just left go Florida on 11/14. I have many unique memories of Patrick, especially his great sense of humor and the many family vacations to New Jersey and North Carolina. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him! Always a comedian and at Rick Matteos wake, he asked Jim Sheehan if he could borrow some oxygen, so typical of his sense of humor! Amen and my blessings to all the Longo family!

It is with great sadness that I learned of Pat's death. My heart goes out to Claudia and his children. Pat and I met many years ago and spent many enjoyable hours doing union business. Pat was one of those people I always looked forward to being with, and I was never disappointed. May he Rest In Peace.
