Mario Bringetto

There was not a man who loved and dedicated his life to his family more. Mario touched and influenced numerous lives. He always had a joke to tell and left smiles on every person he met. Mario was a very helpful person and never turned down a request for help. His most loved hobbies were auto racing and fishing. He always saw the good in everybody and was a proud veteran of the United States Army.

His greatest joys in his life were his children, his four grandsons and five great granddaughters, and the love of his life, his wife Margery.

Mario is preceded in death by his parents, Paolo and Angelina; brothers, Dorino, Augie, and Carlo; and sister Adeline.

He is survived by Margery, his loving wife of 59 years, who loved and cherished him throughout their life together; his daughter, Connie and her husband Ken; son, Mario and his wife Susan; his four grandsons, Kevin, Mike, Jarrett and Anthony; his five great-grand- daughters, Jessica, Bella, Vanna, Vivian, and Giuliana; his brothers, Leo and Victor Bringetto, and their spouses. He is also survived by numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and many many friends.

A special thanks to Amalia, for her help in caring for Mario; and a special thanks to St. Mary's Hospice nurses, Patty and Jacqueline.

"Ti Amo dad, until we meet again."
