It was a very sad day when my partner, Jonathan Gray and I heard the news about Mark. The time we spent together with him and mutual friends was always so enjoyable. He was funny, always smiled easily and so smart. I'm so glad I new him. Our planet was surely a better place because he was here! My deepest condolences to Mark's family and to those near and dear to him.

Mark was a great man with a gentle soul! Worked with him in Amex Centurion. Then he moved over to ticketing where he helped me out on a few occasions. He was so approachable, so kind and an amazing genuine smile! He will definitely be missed!

I met Mark through American Express in Phoenix. We also went on a business(Fam)trip to Rome a few years ago. He showed me all the places he loved - he went to school there and knew his way around. One church he took me to had the beautiful statue - Ecstasy of St. Teresa by Bernini - which was amazing - I never would have seen it without him. He also took me to his favorite Gelato shop - even though it was freezing. We had many laughs while on the trip and continued our friendship through the years. He was a great guy, so sweet and funny. He will be missed dearly. I am sorry for your great loss.

I first met Mark almost 10 years ago at Amex FLL, then we worked together in Miami Lakes and then Miramar. I will always remember him smiling, don't think I ever saw him frown. I lost touch for a few years but wrote to him via facebook not so long ago and glad I did. He will be missed by many people. I am so sorry for the delay in making this entry, I've been out of town. My condolences to Mark's family and friends.

I met Mark at AMEX in the Fort Lauderdale Office. We became friends and stayed in touch through the years. When I was on my Fam in Phoenix Dec. 09, I had the pleasure of hanging out with him again. He was a kind, thoughtful and caring person. Never a bad thought of anyone. I will miss him dearly but will always have the best memories of him.

I knew Mark in Perugia in 1974-75 when we were both studying there. My memories of that time will forever be colored by memories of Mark's adventuresome spirit, endless energy and warm and friendly smile. He was a wonderful person and I am so sad that he is gone. My sincere condolences. Gina Sandonato (Boston, MA)

Mark was and is a beautiful person, genuinely kind and helpful. He really helped me when I first started at Amex Centurion Travel. I don't know if I would have made it without him. His loss will be felt by so many. He was taken way too early, but those of us who knew him, were truly blessed, even if for a short time. My sympathies to his family and friends

I met Mark at AMEX in Miramar, FL about 5 years ago. He was truly a gentleman and a genuine person. His smile would light up the room. I stayed at his Phoenix home a couple of times, and he was truly a great host. I will miss you terribly. My sincere condolences to his family and to Jeff.

I worked with Mark at AMEX in PHX. Mark and I became good friends when we both traveled to Rome, Italy for about a week. He was a great tour guide, knowledgeable and sweet person. After that trip we became wonderful friends. I am glad that he was part of my life. You are missed very much and you will never be forgotten.
