Podro was a wonderful guy and classmate—many fond memories of him from Williams Hill, St. Anthony’s, and all through high school. A solid, genuine person with great values, no doubt instilled by his faith, family and his own good natured character. Condolences to the Podroskey family. Rest In Peace, Mark.
