Irv was a caring, honest, dedicated, loving and fascinating man! We adopted him into the science department at LV. Irv would hang with us during lunch and we all would have the most amazing conversations about all the places he has traveled. He loved bringing in pictures and telling his stories! He was so captivating! The students loved him and couldn't wait for us teachers to be absent so that they could have him as their sub! Irv... we all love you and will miss you terribly. I will cherish all the moments I spent with you! May God bless you and your family and may you rest in peace as you keep those angels in line xoxo

I am writing this on behalf of my Aunt Lee DeJulio. (Staria/Lacker). She sends her condolences to Irv's family, and remembers him fondly as a child, and a wonderful, kind man. She was sad to hear of his passing.

I was lucky enough to work with "Irv", as we all called him, when he was a substitute teacher at Locust Valley High School. However, he was anything but a substitute to the staff and students there. As the school social worker, Irv and I would often discuss students who were in need of special attention. If I needed financial assistance to help a student or family buy food, a Christmas present or heating oil, Irv was the first to generously open his wallet. If he was chaperoning a trip, he would arrive on the bus with a bag full of bagels or buttered rolls. And he was always leaving a cake or other treat in the main office "break room". Amazingly, he knew the names of almost every student in that building. And like the staff, the students loved him! When my husband David, a science teacher at the school, was diagnosed with cancer the age 33, Irv would make it his mission to find me every day to see how I and "our boy" were doing. (By the way, David is doing great. Thirty years cancer free.) One day I left a batch of my mom's favorite Italian cookies in the beak room. Irv commented to me that they were just like the cookies the women down the street from him would make when he was a boy. It turns out "that women", Mrs. DeJulio. was my grandmother! He grew up down the block from my mother Marion and her family. We couldn't believe the coincidence, and would talk all the time about the shared people we knew. And Irv knew everybody!! I used to tell him he should have been the mayor. He would tell me stories about my aunts and Uncle Phil, and how my mom was friends with his sister Joan. He recalled fondly getting his hair cut at my grandfather's baber shop in Westbury Village, next to the movie theater. I will always cherish that special bond we shared. Irv was very proud of the service to his country. He would often share his great love of country with the students, and was usually the first to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance. The words kind, generous and gentle were often used to describe him. My husband David and I send our sincere condolences to Irv's family. Please know he is in our thoughts and prayers, as are all of you. He was a very special man. Marianne Moroz Masopust

In my Earth Science classes I often say that I only know one person who has been to all seven continents...it was Irv (maybe Joan too?). Irv was so generous, he would often bring in some bread from special bakeries he knew. He would host staff luncheons, I think his St. Patrick's party might have been his favorite. He gave me some old fishing tackle, which I gladly repaid by sending him home with some fresh striped bass! He would love biting into a nice ripe tomato as a snack. He was very "old school" in a sense. He told me stories of picking up coal from the LIRR tracks. Riding a bicycle down to the bay to get fresh clams. Asparagus growing wild in what I think is now Roosevelt Field mall area. Basketball stories. Pilot stories. Navy stories. He shared many stories with my sons Wally and Nicholas and they saw him as a role model. He had so many rich life experiences. He is a man who lived by his beliefs and I will admire him always.
