Sherry, it's Kellie Torres! Victor told me about Gino and we were both so saddened by the news. Even though we lost touch with each other over the years, Victor and I would reminiss about all the fun times we all had together! Victor & Gino always continued to cross paths working on the slope. Gino was a loving, caring, funny, generous man who will be missed terribly by all whose lives he touched. May God bless and comfort you and your family through this difficult time. Our prayers will be with you always. We love you!

To the Family,
I worked with Geno on the slope on Doyon 19 for the last 10 years. He was a great guy and always made me feel good being around him. I will miss him no being in the pit room.
May God bless and be with you in this very difficult time.

The family should take comfort in knowing he is at peace now and that he in the loving arms of God now and that comfort of his spirit will always be with his family.
Remembering the good times will be a place of peace, joy and happiness hereafter for his loving family.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!
