Mark you were such an amazing support during our times at Oboka school supporting us when it was needed most ! We were so happy when you and the boys joined us at medbury your dedication to supporting all sports or coaching or just being the most passionate dad on the sideline ! It was always a great pleasure to be along side you! I know our Henry had a lot of great conversations with you regarding the rules! Your patience was appreciated

Dear Bronwyn, Archer and Maxwell I was very sorry to hear of your loss. I really enjoyed the chats with Mark on the basketball court, or watching the boys perform their musical talents. He always had a wisecrack or observations that had me laughing. Mr Collins and I enjoyed questioning his choice of clothing and his desire to tuck his pants into his cowboy boots. What a wonderful husband, father and pillar of our community. My heart and prayers are with you all. Richard Bath
