Not sure what to say?

Mark I have so many memories that I cherish with you. I can't even begin with one. You were always there for me. You were very special to me and will always hold a special place in my heart...I think of you daily and I wish I could just speak to you one more time. You made my life better by knowing you.

Mark was the love of my best friend's life. Judy is my best friend and No words can say how much I know she misses him, only her tears I see her cry.

To Hillary, your Dad was a man of honor. May you have memories to last your lifetime, know that he loved you very much. Sorry things could not have been different.

Bill & Merl, We love you and will continue to pray for you. Losing our son to Cystic Fibrosis was so hard - But God will not put more on us that we can stand. Continue to trust in God.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

we were so sorry to hear of mark's death, we extend sympathy to his family, we will always remember him for being kind and someone who was considerate and a good friend.

Mark and I roomed together our first year of law school. He was a really smart guy and didn't have to study nearly as hard as I did. Most nights I would see Mark reading his bible. I have no doubt that he is now with his saviour. That is the way I choose to remember him--a friend forever to many including myself; a man who loved his country and his family and a first class stand up guy who never forgot how to smile and be nice to people regardless of his circumstances.

Mark, was one of the best friend's I ever had. Mark and I met at Hazard Community College where he was the instructor for my business law class. We kept in contact with each other through the good and bad. I often told him he was one of the smartest men that I'd ever known. He was a very loving and caring person. I love him and he will be missed dearly.

To the Barger: I am so sorry to hear of your lost. I cannot begin to imagine how you must be feeling at this time. I hope that the words at Isaiah 51:12 will be of comfort.
