Mario Beltran Obituary
Mario devoted the entirety of his career to the U.S. government in one form or another, including active duty in the USAF, USAF Reserves and a stint with the Foreign Service. He was a lifelong sports enthusiast, excelling in soccer, volleyball, swimming, diving, running, tennis and, for the last 30 years, golf. There was not a sport on television that he did not enjoy watching.
He is survived by his beloved wife of more than 57 years, Carmelin Amestegui Beltran; brothers Jorge Eduardo Beltran, Luis Fernando Beltran and predeceased by Jose Emilio Beltran; sons Mario Gonzalo Beltran (Missy), Mark Anthony Beltran, Michael Patrick Beltran (Timothy); cherished grandchildren Kyle, Shea, Amalia and Marisol; extended family and countless friends.
The family will hold a memorial service later this spring upon Carmelin's return to Dover. Details to be announced.
