Mario worked in the Electrical Maintenance Department for SSAB in Montpelier, Iowa for nearly 27 years. Mario’s diversified skill set designated him the family “Mr. Fix-It”. He was always willing to give of his time and of his attention. Mario enjoyed reading, and loved anything outdoors, including cycling, running, and hiking.
