Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all the love and support during this time and we are sorry to have to ask and werent prepared for this emergency. I have reshared daily and i know people may get tired of it but we are hoping to just get enough and i will be the first to be happy not having to post again. Im only doing what i can for him and still need help. thank you.. My son, Mario Morton Jr., was only 27 years old when he passed away last night. He was born with spina bifida and was paralyzed from the waist down, but that never stopped him from being a wonderful person and an incredible son. Mario faced many challenges in his life, including countless surgeries, but he always kept a positive outlook and a great disposition. He touched the lives of everyone who knew him with his father Mario Sr, and mom Torie, sister Destiny, Brother Corey, and 3 nieces Jaela, Nevaeh, and Juliette never forget him and keep him with them forever.

One small comfort is knowing that Mario will be reunited with his Granny Girl Nora and his younger sister Kora, who passed away before him. We find peace in believing they are together now.

As his father, I have lost my best friend. Asking for help is incredibly hard for me, but I am reaching out because we truly need support. We are reaching out to our community for help during this incredibly difficult time. Any support you can offer will go directly toward covering Mario's funeral and burial expenses. We have not yet decided between burial or cremation, but your generosity will help us make the best decision for him. If anyone can offer help or counseling, it would be deeply appreciated. Thank you to everyone who knew Mario and recognized what a special person he was. Your kindness and support mean more to us than words can express.

Our Christmases will never be the same without Mario. His presence brought so much joy to our family, and the holidays will always remind us of how much we miss him.
