I was shocked to here about mark. I wish I could have done more. He will always be remembered as a good old deer hunter. You always gave the kids gum when we were not supposed to get it! He made food in the middle of the night usually some "concoction " he made up. We should have owned Anna's subs because Mark ordered them for us so much! We loved every minute of it. Go to heaven with good food and good times!

Theresa, Bubbie, & Joyce,
So sorry to hear of Mark’s passing. It has been a while since I had last seen Mark, but I often think of the good times we had hunting on Cold Springs Road. I always thought of Mark as one of the most thoughtful people I have ever known. He was always so kind and generous to the kids: Neil, Joey, Angela and Kristen. He will be missed by all of us. Know that you and your families will be in our thoughts and prayers as you go through this difficult time.
