My most sincere condolences to the Mahayag family. Mario was a natural leader and a mentor to myself and others. He was certainly an inspiring and highly intelligent man that had so much to offer as he so often did. Bro. Mario had a profound impact on my life and yet I only knew him for a year. I will surely miss his presence and his kind words. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
