Mauro (Pop) was my friend for 50+ yrs. He taught me how to select, prep, and barbecue meat. He and Connie regularly hosted family parties, where we adults drank gallons of Bergie beer, and ate fabulous meals. Loving kindness was extended to all who attended.

Weekend  trips to the NCO club led to dinner, dancing, and drinks Pop almost always paid for.  When my gas guzzler car died he practically gave me his economy car. He was so generous!

I miss him now, and will treasure my memories of the wonderful person he was. Rest in peace Pop.

Its such a blessing to be able to experience the love and guidance from not just a grandfather but a great grandfather and for my children to have the opportunity to love grandpa too, he is missed ♡

So much I could say but most importantly, Thank you for all the wonderful advice you gave me, in which I'll always remember and carry with me. Thank you for all the amazing memories, I will cherish them forever. I will miss you and think of you always❤️

I’m send my love and condolences to the beautiful family of my amazing uncle. I always felt my Uncle Mario was like my second dad, especially after my dad died in 2011. He gave me more memories of my father, which kept him alive in spirit! So, Uncle Mario Godspeed and I love you always! Your “Da”

Until we meet again…. We love you so much!

Dad, my hope is that the examples of generosity and kindness have taught us all how to be like you. Thank you for being the gentleman you were. I love you.

great grandpa helped me with a school project about korea, he told me stories and showed me pictures. he even allowed me to take his photo album to school and i was able to show my teacher and tell him about how cool my great grandpa was.  i love you always great grandpa. love nichole
