In Loving Memory

My condolences to the Pino family. I was a student of your father many years ago. I would joke with my father that he set me up for lessons because I just couldn’t believe that a man would just knock at the door to ask if anyone wanted an accordion lesson. I’m 58 years old and so glad that I learned to play a “mean ole” polka! I remember going to. Chicago with your fathers group. I will remember his happiness and smiling face. Thank you Mr. Pino ����

I attended Mr. Pino's accordion class when I was in 3rd grade (1982). I didn't finished the course because the next-level device was just too large for me to manage. He was a very kind and patient man. He even gave me the gold, graduation pin in the shape of an accordion, though I didn't finish.

I met Larry when I was a very shy 10 year old. I felt lucky that he wanted to be my accordion teacher. He gave me the self-confidence I needed to succeed. I became a special ed teacher and have taught numerous students and fellow teachers to have confidence learning math over the past 32 years! Thank you, Larry, for believing in me! Love, Fay

Larry had a tremendous influence on my life. Not only was he a great teacher of the accordion, but he was also taught me commitment, endurance, excellence and striving to exceed my own expectations. I thank him for sharing his talent and experience with me. God bless. Dorothy
