Mark, I feel I have known you thru your Mom & I talking over all the years, thru good times & bad. You couldn't have had a more caring Mom who only wanted the best for you. I know she misses you each & every day but I hope that she will cherish your memories together and little things will remind her that you still live in her heart & mind. Your Mom is one special lady who cares greatly about others. You are greatly missed. Sincerely, Ms. Judy Gruber

Mark was a quiet but sweet guy. I wish I was able to have known him better, and wish we had kept in touch. My love and prayers are with his family always. I have a daughter myself and couldn't even imagine the pain and suffering I would go through if something ever happened to her. God bless you Mark; thank you for the memories you have left us. You're always in our heart.

Kelly Sue,
My lovely daughter and friend. My heart aches for your loss. You and Mark shared a special love for one another, always wanting the best for each other and always doing everything possible to help each other. Mark loved you so and never was his love more obvious than when he helped to build the home you are living in. Mark will forever remain in your heart. He and your Dad are your guardian angels now watching over you 24/7.
I love you Kelly.
Mama Lisa, Stafford, VA

No one can express the feelings of lost that our side of the family has felt since finding out that Marky had passed on. Mark had his own way of expressing himself. I know because the last time I had talked to him on the phone he was worried so much for his mother and had said how much she did for him. I know he told Kelly that night that he loved her for she called thanking me.
Kelly there was no need for thanks that is what families are here for. I'm just glad you were able to hear it from him. Mark you will be missed, loved and remembered even though you may be gone for you have touched the lives of so many.

I have known Kelly, Mark & Kelly's brother, Chris, since I was 13 yrs old. I have a 17 year old daughter, Brittnie, with Chris. So Kelly & Mark have been family to me for a very long time. I love them both dearly.. I remember when I was 16 I babysat Mark one day for Kelly. I had an interview that day with Kings Dominion & decided to take Mark along. My friend picked us up in her new car & we went. I remember sitting in the office trying to have my interview and Mark was pulling everything off the guy's desk. Needless to say I didn't get the job. We then went to Taco Bell and I got Mark some Tacos. He made such a mess in the back seat. My friend loved me for that. I have to admit Mark & I thought it was funny. I feel blessed to have a great memory of Mark that makes me laugh when I think of him. Mark will be greatly missed by all who loved him.. Love you & Miss you!!

im not here
don't stand by my grave and weep
for i'm not there,i do not sleep
i am a thousand winds that blow
i am the diamonds glint on snow
i am the sunlight on ripend grain
i am the gentle autumn's rain
when you awaken in the mornings hush
i am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circle flight
i am the soft stars that shine at night
do not stand at my grave and cry
i am not there, i did not die
i'm in shock even tho i never met u there will always be a special place in my heart i just can't believe ur gone
take care kelly my prayers are with you and urs during these hard times
love a sad juggalette named trippy

Hi Kelly, im still in shock right now. I still cant believe that he's gone. Im still crying now, i dont know what else to say. He's so dear to me, like a younger brother. Though i never had the chance to meet him, he's still my best friend. I keep on pleading to God to take good care of Mark. I know God will, but i want extra for him. He's so special and beautiful. I thank him for always reminding me to enjoy things and not to worry too much. He doesnt know im living that principle now too..I love you Kelly.. I Love my friend Mark so much..Thanks..

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.
