YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio — Mario Mioli, 88, of Youngstown, formerly of Daytona, Florida and Cleveland, passed away on Friday, June 5, 2026, at Greenbriar Healthcare Center in Boardman.

Born on April 15, 1938, in Crabtree, Pennsylvania, Mioli was the son of the late Biagio and Domenica Sabina Piozzio Mioli. His passing marks the loss of a devoted family man, U.S. Air Force veteran, and longtime Ohio business owner remembered for his loyalty, warmth, and quiet strength.

Mioli served honorably in the United States Air Force as an organizational supply specialist. During his service, he earned the Good Conduct Medal and was later honorably discharged from Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in North Carolina. His military career is being remembered by loved ones as a defining period of discipline, service, and commitment.

Following his time in the military, Mioli built a life as an entrepreneur and community businessman, owning the former Great Lakes Army & Navy Store on East 185th Street in Cleveland. Through his work, he developed lasting relationships within the community and earned a reputation for hard work, reliability, and respect for his customers.

Family members describe him as a loving son, brother, and uncle who remained deeply devoted to those closest to him throughout his life. He was remembered for his kind heart, striking blue eyes, and genuine personality. Outside of work, he enjoyed technology, long road trips, and the companionship of his beloved Schnauzer, Susie.

He was preceded in death by his parents, his stepmother Adele Mioli, his sister Amelia Mioli, and his brothers Emedio, Anthony, Valentine, and Vincent Mioli, as well as his niece Gina Mioli.

He is survived by seven nieces and nephews and 16 great-nieces and great-nephews, all of whom remember him with deep affection.

Funeral arrangements are expected to be announced by the family.

Mario Mioli will be remembered for his service, his work ethic, his devotion to family, and the lasting impact he made on his community.
