Mario Payan

Was thinking of you brother and was very surprised I hadn’t already left a message or pictures. You taught me a lot about respect and honor. A lot of great memories hanging with you, Rick, Bobby, Lincoln & all the Mt. View crew. We had my baby shower at your & Bobby’s house where the front was lined with bikes and the house was full of the best! At least two of the bikes there, you had painted.

You were so proud of me when I got my first bike and I was proud to ride next to you.

Selena, I know you remember back in the early 80’s when a pack of bikes came roaring up to your house to deliver a music box from your Dad. I was the one that came to the door. Last minute, when Mario couldn’t make the trip we all told him, no problem Brother, we will deliver it for you. He loved you so much.

I loved Mario so very much and miss him all the time! RIP my Brother.
Love & Respect, Karen & Jake

So very sorry to hear about Mario. He was a good man and always enjoyed his company. My sister Karen Brown and I visited him several years ago when I was visiting from Ohio. My condolences to his family!

So very sad to hear of Mario passing. By accident l found out because l went looking on FB for him! We have not been “friends in our adult life, as a child throughout school years Mario and l were friends because we would sit in alphabetical order in class. He was Pay and l was Paz. Such a kind, sweet gentle person he was then. I am so sorry for your loss. My sympathies to your family.

Mario was a good man.

I didn't know Mario, but my sister, Sue Carney did. Mario looks like someone Sue and I might have been friends with back in the 60's & 70's in Riverside, CA RIP

My mother and father were best friends with Hector and Nancy. As long as I can remember Uncle Mario was around. He was the first one to take me for a ride on a motorcycle. :) I truly only have found memories of him. Later in life we lost touch, until recently being connected on Facebook. Praying for grandma and the rest of the family. Rest In Peace Uncle Mario. Holly

Miss you Brother think about you every day,the tons of rides we had together, so much in Common, Plenty of associates , only a few true Friends, you were one out of three ,see you in the Spirit World behold.

I did not know Mario very long, what I do remember was a kind sweet soul! I adore the joy he brought to my friend. He will forever be missed! 🙏😢

Mario was so engaged with the business of living to the fullest! His meticulous artworks, his curiosity and zest for learning new things, love for his kitties, mechanics, his dry wit and keen mind, dedication to family and friends. We met late in our lives, but recognized that we shared so much---born at the same time, both California kids, maybe a little bit of black sheep in the earlier days, long conversations about our lives. I treasure knowing Mario, and will miss him always. Wonderful photos!

I was sadden to hear the news about the passing of Mario. I will always remember his free spirit. Mom Payan loved him and always invited him to her gatherings. He had such a zest for life! Thank you for serving out country!
Ride free! Bikers never really die they just ride freely into the clouds. God Bless Mario and Rest In Peace Sylvia
