It took a while to figure out how to express my feelings on Mark's passing. While a husband, father, son, and friend has been lost, his memory will live on in all of us. We will retell the jokes he left with us and listen to the music he introduced us to. All of our lives have been changed and influence in some way just by knowing Mark. Although his physical presence will be missed, he will never really leave us.

I am so sorry for your loss. I was stunned and of course saddened to learn of Mark's passing. Though for whatever reasons we took different paths and slowly stopped hanging out, I never forgot him. In fact, he happened to cross my mind that very day.
Those occasions when we would run into each other always provided at least a couple of laughs.
As the memories came flooding back, in most of them we were finding something to laugh about, even if it was ourselves at times.
May God bless and comfort you, and you'll be in my thoughts and prayers.

I'm in shock to read of Mark passing away so suddenly. I worked with Mark at Colwell many years ago. Talked with him when ever I had a chance to at Wal-Mart. Mark was such a sweetheart of a guy. He is going to be greatly missed by so many people he knew.

Dear Betty, Dave, Aaron, Jodi, Emily and your families,
We were so very sorry to hear of Mark's passing. Please know we are thinking of you all and my prayers are that the Lord is surrounding you with peace beyond understanding, and that you will be comforted knowing that Mark is in heaven dancing and singing with the Angels. Although it has been years since seeing Mark, I remember him as a caring man and we enjoyed many fun times with him. Love and hugs, Carmen (and family...Mark, Natalie & Jeremy)

Aaron,
We are so very sorry for your loss.
I knew Mark from Walmart and just thought the world of him. Even when I was shopping at the store and he was working I would stop and he would take time to talk to me as a friend.
Mark was a wonderful guy and he will be sorely missed way too young.
God bless you and your family are prayers are with you.
Your old neighbors Scott and Laurie
