Fall 2006 – My father showed his lighthearted side by playing in the leaves with us. I recall he kept on raking the pile higher
and higher and we would throw the dogs in the middle of it (it was pre-kids). He was like a little boy again, full of life and taking
time out of his endless weekend chores to enjoy the moment with us and stir things up. I cherish each of these memories of my father.
For all that still receive this blog, I have a favor to ask to help me in my effort to create a memory book about my father. I am hoping
to capture the essence of my father in words from those who knew him best and one day pass this along to our children, so they know
just how amazing he was.
So, please share your favorite Mario memory, story, quote, or any reflection of how he touched your life. You can post it here as a comment or email me directly at

Thank you for your continued support and love.

Dear Acuna family,
I am Marcos Machado from Argentina. I do not know if you remeber me, Mario and I were very good friends and worked a lot together on the first Argentine spacecraft and Argentine space activities.
Just wnted to let you all know that at the 9th Conference on Latin American Space Geophysics (COLAGE) we will have a special session dedicated to Mario, who is sorely missed by the community. I was nominated to be the last speaker (as a real honor to me) and also aked to try and get in touch with you, to let you know about this event.
You can find the details at: http://www.colage.cinespa.ucr.ac.cr/
Hope that everything is OK with you and your families.
All the best,
Marcos
PS: I almost forgot, as a favor, if you have any picture of Mario that you think I could/should include in my talk, please send it to me. Cheers.
