We honor Dr Mark Vetto's legacy. He was a caring person who contributed much in his career as a physician and was devoted to his family and community. Heartfelt condolences to Marianne especially, beloved wife of 69 years. It is impressive that all of the Vetto children also contribute so much to the common good. Blessings to you all. Treasure the good memories and be consoled knowing Mark now possesses the Beatific Vision for eternity. Emma & George Steen family

Reading Robert's obituary I realize what a remarkable model he was for his children, especially the one I know best, John - a dear friend who was so kind to me 47 years ago when my father passed. My thoughts are with you, John, and our whole family.
