Mario Louis Veneroso

Mario Louis Veneroso of Simi Valley, beloved husband, father, brother, friend, and mentor to so many, has gone on to eternal rest (2/24/1958 – 3/3/2017). Originally from Garden Grove (CA), Mario had proved in his time to be a skilled engineer, photographer, scuba diver, and trail-blazer. He loved good scotch and to be in nature, especially Yosemite. He was generous with all he had (especially humor) and his advice was sought and valued by those who knew him. He has gone to join his mother and father, Mary and Mario, and his brother, Matthew. He is survived by his wife, Virginia, his children, Christina, Nicholas, and Teresa, and his siblings, Michele, Marc, and Martin. The visitation with the family will be on Thursday, March 9th, at Rose Chapel in Simi Valley (4444 Cochran St.) from 5-9pm with a rosary at 7pm. Funeral services are on Friday, March 10th, at St. Rose of Lima Church (1305 Royal Ave.) at 11am, with burial services at Assumption Catholic Cemetery around noon. If you cannot join, please feel free to raise a glass in his honor.

In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations to The Gary Sinise Foundation.
