Dear Barb and children,
I know how heavy your hearts must feel and that you have cried all the tears you have but know Mark and your Dad has seen the face of God and relishes in His most joyous peace and love now. His pain and suffering has been taken away and Mark (Dad) now feels the sun on his face and the warmth of your love all around him. I cannot take away your pain but want you to know I feel what you do and tears come to my eyes thinking of how wonderful a man he is ( I cannot say "was" because he lives in your hearts) and how you miss him and will forever. But at this time of grief remember all the fun you had and the memories you have been given by Mark (Dad) and know that the support of your friends and family will get you to the next day. If I could take away your pain I would but God has given you the most wonderful gift of love for your husband/father. Hold onto that love and know he is at peace and will watch over you the rest of your lives. You have not lost your loved one but gained a cheerleader in Heaven where he waits to see all of you one day.
God's Peace and love be with all,
Marlene, Ed, Greg ,and Bryan Davis
