I was supprised to lean that Mario passed away last year.
He was a wonderful person and I will always remember him from school.

God Bless,

To the Sottile Family: My heartfelt condolences on the loss of my junior college basketball coach, Mario. He was a great role model to me in my formative years at St. Thomas Seminary and I'll never forget the ecstasy on his face when we won the Connecticut Small College Basketball Championship at Kaiser Gym in New Britain. Mario was a great mentor and role model who loved God and people. I will always remember him as a special guide in my life. Fondly, Joe Hilliard

Janet I'm so sorry to hear of Mario's passing. I did not know he passed away until tonight or the kids and I would have been at the wake. I will always remember hearing Mario's whistle when you lived across from us in Pond Place. I have so many good memories of Mario. He was such a good person and always had a smile on his face and a twinkle in his eyes. He will be missed by everyone who knew him.

Mario was a strong but sensitive man with a sentimental heart and a passionate soul, a real gentle man.
A life well lived doesn't end any more than music ends...it echoes through time with whispers of beauty and grace. If we listen, we can hear the encore with our hearts...
For the song plays on just as love plays on.

My condolences to the Sottile family.

Mario was truly "A Man for All Seasons" .....RIP.

Janet & Family: I share in your grief for the passing of Mario, I did not know he passed away last week, I was talking to my sister Marilyn and she informed me. He was a fun guy to be with, we will all miss him. Love and prayers. Hope to see you in the near future..

Janet,Michael,Gregory and Family:

Our deepest sympathy to you all.It is our prayer that Mario now rests with the Lord.

My deepest condolences to the entire Sottile family. It was an honor to know & take care of Mario. We always had fun/interesting conversations! Janet I am sending you a big hug.

I was surprised and saddened by learning of Mario's passing. He was special indeed. I was his colleague, one of the first fellow "team leaders" when we opened Lewis B.Fox MS in 1971. Some 20 years went by before I saw Mario again. He suddenly appeared one day a few years ago and cheered me up when I was undergoing open heart surgery, under the St Francis Mended Heart Program of which he dutifully and capably, like everything else, did so well. He was a good man, as you all know, and is now a great co-captain for God in Heaven.

Dear Janet and family,
Franco and I were out of town and just heard the sad news. We will always remember Mario being such a kind and gentle spirit. May your lifetime of happy memories always surround you and bring you strength. May Mario rest in eternal peace.

Dear Michael,
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your dad. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

To the Sottile Family: I was a student in Mr. Sottile's class when Lewis Fox Middle School first opened. He was an incredibly delightful teacher always encouraging, upbeat & extreamly positive. It is apparent this is how he lived his life. I extend my sincere condolence to the entire family for your loss. Mr. Sottile's accomplishments were numerous, it's nice to know he lived such a rich fulfiling life.

Dear Sottile family, I just returned from vacation and am sad to read of Mario's passing. I have worked at the union office (HFT) for over 32 years and got to know Mr. Sottile during that time. He was always a joy to be around, always smiling, always an upbeat attitude about life. He will be missed by all that knew him. With sincere sympathy, Nancy Swanson

Janet Thinking of you at this time. I am so sorry to hear of your loss.
I will always remember Mario standing at the free throw line, blessing himself, then shooting....
Hopefully, I will see you again someday soon.

Mario was such a sweet, loving soul and the epitome of kindness. My love and prayers are with all of you! God Bless! Love, Terri

I remember early mornings in Fox Middle School. Melodic whistling preceded a bouncing step, a wide smile, and a warm, enthusiastic greeting. A great way to start each day. Condolences.
