Mario was a kind and gentle gentleman. I miss talking to him and our FaceTime calls. I was so saddened to find out about his declining health, but I´m glad I got to communicate with him in his last days. I´ll never forget Mario A. Beckles Sr.

To the family of Mario,
Weeping may endure for one night but joy comes in the morning. Mario was one of a kind. A gentle giant always fighting for a good cause. I worked with Mario at Bellwood and learned a lot from him. He never passed anyone in the hallway without a smile and a hello. He definitely will be missed by many but never forgotten. Rest In Peace my friend. Enjoy your wonderful new life in heaven.
