Brother Mario fought the illness exactly as stated in 2 Timothy 4:7 NIV [7] I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. I am inspired that he was able to stay positive over every trial the Lord brought him through. As his mortal body turns to dust and we grieve in his demise, we take comfort that he will be resurrected to live eternally with Jesus in heaven.
Mario will be truly missed. A great friend of 33 years. We’ve had many happy memories when Megan, Shu Yi and Wen Pei were growing up together in Singapore. You’ve always had a good sense of humour to keep things light-hearted and a positive outlook in life. You’re in a better place now, my dear friend. You’ve fought a good fight. Dearest Jiner and Megan, sending you all our love. Sincerely, PE, Ed, SY and WP 🧡🧡Hugssss.
We always remember the laughter we shared during FaberCrest years together. God is with you now and always - no pain only joy as you live eternally with Jesus. You were an angel in the snow during our trip to Japan back in 26 Dec 2008. May you be Jiner's and Megan's guardian angel as we pray that the Lord will uphold them with peace and comfort.

I will always remember him as someone who brightens the spirit of everyone who sees him. Sincere condolences to the family and may he rest in peace
Mario was such a delight to work with in ED. Always happy, always smiling and always helping out his colleagues, ive had many laughs with him and will cherish those dearly. He will be terribly missed, we have lost such a special soul. Sending love, thoughts, warm hugs and prayers to Marios wife, daughter and all family and friends. May he rest in peace 💗
I have consistently crossed paths with Mario over the past 6 years working with him in SRS and ED! He was always such a kind colleague and a pleasure to work with! Always a huge smile on his face and a frequent chuckle coming from him! A incredible nurse with the kindest soul always happy to go out of his way to help patients and colleagues alike! Sending condolences to his wife, daughter and family and friends! 🩵🩵
Mario was one the happiest nurse that I come across when I started working in ED environment. He always energetic, funny, supportive and flipped the stressful situation becoming very fun and easy to deal with. I felt very bless to know him and ever work with him. He always told me that he will get better and return work next year but that was end of 2023 when I last seen him as a patient at ED, and I know how much he enjoy his role at work. This news is very heartbreaking to me but he was loved by everyone. My deepest condolences to his family.

Mario was a wonderful part of the FSH ED family. Always caring to patients, helpful to staff and always with a smile on his face. We will miss you Mario
Mario, A Cherished Friend It is with heavy hearts that we bid farewell to Mario. He was more than a friend; he was a source of joy, kindness, and warmth. His friendly nature and eagerness to build connections made him truly special. Mario had a unique gift for spreading happiness, and we will always treasure the memories of his cheerful laughter and genuine heart. He was a wonderful companion to Yong Soon during our trip to Perth years ago and we deeply regret that future moments together will now live only in our hearts. We will miss him dearly but will hold onto the legacy of love and positivity he left behind. May he rest in peace, knowing how deeply he was loved and cherished by all of us.
A business associate who became a friend. Mario treasures friendship and continue to keep in touch even after our careers parted and he migrated to Perth. Always with a smile, kind and a simple person. Never complaining. Even with the many visits to hospital, his texts are always positive and trusting God. May his soul rest in peace. My deepest condolence to his wife, daughter and family.
Mario was a man of perservance. Years ago, he learned guitar so that he can lead worship. Even though he was not musically inclined and our group were struggling to sing along with him, he never gave up. Same goes for his faith, he was always leaning on God, trusting God for his journey even though it was challenging. He never failed to look to God for solace. We thank God for his faith which encourages us.
Mario was a great man and my uncle, every meet up with him was filled with laughter till the very end. He battled through the ordeal with positivity and for his family. I will miss you Uncle Mario ❤️
Saying goodbye is never easy. Losing a family member is like losing a part of yourself. Mario is a special person and I feel so lucky to have him as my brother. You accomplished so much in your life and is always there for the family. I treasure the time when we were growing up. Our family will never be the same without you. Sending my love and deepest sympathy to Jiner and Megan.
Mario, our friendship has gone a long way back. We shared our life journey from being singles to married and to being parents of adult children. You will be dearly missed by our family. We had wonderful memories of you in Singapore and Perth. We will miss your smile, your warm hospitality and your unique sense of humour. In this recent season, we saw your tenacity and strength that comes from the Lord in your heart. Thank you for modelling a surrendered life and we will see you in time to come. Jiner and Megan, we stand with you in times like this with our prayers and support. May the strength and peace of the Lord be with both of you.

We will always remember Mario as a dear brother who cares and serves, more than his spoken words. His kindness towards us during times of need, was what we felt deeply beyond his laughter, sense of humor and also silence. The last battle that he fought, brought out the gold in him that we could all see so clearly - his unwavering trust and faith in Christ, his surrender to God's will, his total dependence on His grace and power to live well and clothed with deep gratitude to God despite his suffering. In the midst of all, he still prayed for us and our daughter. We are very thankful that we could fellowship together over a meal recently. It was memorable. Indeed we shall have so many stories to share with endless fellowship and praise when we meet again, in our Father's house. In His love.
I will always remember Mario as a cheerful & hard-working colleague. Rest In Peace. Comfort & healing to all those who loved him.
Seems like only yesterday we met Mario when you came back for a visit. You have always extended yourself, given selflessly of yourself especially to your family and am sure your family feels this gift. You can do it only because you appreciate the gift you receive from the Lord! May Jinah and Megan continue this legacy you have shown because of Christ! May His peace and comfort be upon your family and for you, be received into His arms and be welcomed home. 🙏🙏
We were blessed to have Mario’s friendship. We are better people for having met him and for knowing him. We will forever have fond memories of our times spent together with him. May he rest in peace.🙏 Theng Kie & Joo Hwee
Please accept my sincere condolences. Wishing you peace and comfort during this challenging time. Miss you uncle Mario.

Mario will always hold a special place in our hearts. We’re deeply grateful for the many cherished moments our families shared. We’ll always remember the warmth of our gatherings—filled with laughter (especially Mario's hearty laughter), heartfelt conversations, and the joy of coming together over plenty of good food and wine. To Jiner and Megan, we pray that God’s peace and comfort will surround you in this season, and that His unfailing love will carry you through. Till we meet again, Mario!
