I'm so sad for Mark's family, for Doug, Teddy, Chris, Mitch, Sarah, Tav, Caroline and all those who knew and loved Mark. He's forever frozen in my mind as around 25 years old, when I first met him, his parents and brothers and enjoyed watching the brotherly teasing that went on among Chris, Mitch and Mark.

My heart goes out to all of you.
