He was fondly known as Dad, Pops, Papa Gino, Gino, Muzzy, or Marine and passed peacefully at his home in South Carolina on Nov. 9, 2024 at 3:33 in the afternoon.

Gino was a Marine through and through who always showed strength in the face of adversity, was never one to sensor himself, and said it like it was.

A member of many motorcycle clubs, his last affiliation was with the Marine Corps Motorcycle Club called the Jarheads. He served overseas during Vietnam and was a member of the Spartanburg Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 9539.
