Mario Edward J. Giordano of Richboro, Pa., passed away peacefully after a strong fight with cancer surrounded by family and friends on Sunday, January 14, 2018. He was 61 years old. Born in South Philadelphia, he was the son of the late Rocky and Thelma (nee Gill) Giordano.
He was the beloved husband of Cindy Giordano (nee Berry) and loving father of Mickey Giordano. He was also survived by his mother-in-law, Marie Berry, brother-in-laws, Joe Berry (Anne Purcell), Greg Berry, along with nieces, nephews, uncle, aunts and cousins.
Mario was a Marine Veteran, as he always noted, once a Marine, always a Marine. He was a carpenter by trade but was defined by his love of the job. Each completed job was a tribute to Mario’s professionalism and craftsmanship. He left a little bit of himself in every job he did, always proud of the end result.
Mario was a loving, involved father. Whether coaching Mickey or showing him how to use a hammer, Mario was able to teach Mickey life’s most important lessons. Time was something he always gave freely. He was a family guy who loved going to Disney and on vacations down the shore. He was a great father being involved in Mickey’s life. Mario was a wonderful husband and a friend to many. He will be remembered for his generous heart, love of family and beautiful smile that would light up a room.
