I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to Dr. Joseph Tommasino on receiving this well-deserved recognition and service award from Touro University. Your unwavering guidance, wisdom, and support have been instrumental in shaping my professional journey. As my mentor, you have consistently gone above and beyond, offering not just your expertise but also your time and encouragement during both triumphs and challenges. The success I enjoy today is a direct reflection of your influence and belief in my potential. Your dedication to Touro University and to mentoring students like me has created a lasting legacy of excellence and compassion. Thank you for everything you have done, and congratulations once again on this tremendous honor. I love you bubba.

Dad and Joey,

Does this mean you’re retiring? Probably not—but it’s worth considering! I could never adequately put into words what you mean to me, but I will give it my best shot.
First, congratulations on this extraordinary accomplishment and the well-deserved recognition. Your service to the Physician Assistant profession and Touro University reflects your relentless work ethic and outstanding leadership. Thanks to your dedication, the Touro PA program has become one of the most elite in the nation.
I’ve had a front-row seat to the “Joe Tommasino Show” my entire life. I’ve watched you come from humble beginnings to building an incredibly successful career. Along the way, you’ve impacted countless lives, leaving a profound and lasting influence on so many people and their journeys. As you’ve grown, so have those closest to you. I am one of the lucky ones whose life and success have been shaped by your guidance. You’ve taught me the value of hard work, loyalty, and the importance of surrounding myself with good people. You’ve been my boss, my mentor, my best friend—but most importantly, my father. The latter, to me, is your greatest achievement.
May this ceremony and scholarship serve as a reminder that life is short, but Joey’s memory will live forever. I love you, Pops. Thank you for everything you’ve done for this family.
Lastly, to my brother Joey—I know you’re watching over us now, free from burdens and at peace. I think about you always and will never forget you. Until we meet again, I love you. Rest in peace, my brother.

Love,
Matty
