I remember when I lived next door to Mario and Lil, 21 yrs. ago. I would get up in the morning in the summer and would find fresh garden grown Zuccini and a cut rose or two that Mario would place on the back yard fence that Mario cut from his garden. I worked for Mario for several years, they don't come any better than him!
I always looked forward to getting off my shift on Saturdays, sitting and having a beer and talking with Mario. I will miss him very much.
Much Love Sheryl & Angela

Sorry to hear of the passing of Mario. Another eastside kid is gone. How Petaluma has changed since they were all eastside kids together and my mom was one of them also. He was a wonderful and gentle, loving man. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family in their loss.
