Mario and I worked together at Canon USA.  You could always count on him for a smile and a joke or clever remark,  which would be one of those better moments in your day.   He was a gentleman's gentleman through and through, with a much younger's man's zest for life and outlook on the world.  During one conversation, we found out that we shared a love of ancient Egypt and when I learned that his life's dream to see the pyramids had been fulfilled, I felt his great joy.  I am deeply saddened at the news of his passing, and wish you my sincerest sympathy.  Your pictures show me a life well lived,  deep love and bonding and that he was living his best life.   Please know that Butchie will live in my memory and in that of his many friends at Canon.   I wish you peace.

Sincerely - 
Ruth Weinstein

You will be missed my friend. I truly appreciated our animated conversations and your tutelage along the way. Memories of you will always bring a smile and in the end, that is all we hope for during our journey through life. Thank you for mine.

Dear Rosemary and family
We spent a recent couple of days together in the Poconos with you and Butch.  Mike and I enjoyed being with you.  We will always remember Butch's stories and wonderful disposition.  

God has embraced Butch and added another angel named Mario (Butch to us).

Love and prayers
XO
Daria and Mike D'Agostino

Celebrating holidays was always so special with our wonderful lifelong friends. Great times always!
