Not sure what to say?

I didn't know mr armentrout, however I felt I wanted to express my sincerest condolences to the family and friends.. I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that your family will be in my prayers. (John 11:1-44)

I had the pleasure to work with Mark while we were both at Arco. He was someone who always made think and was a great inspirational leader. I admired him greatly.

Christie, Alyssa, and Nathan,
I was sorry to hear of Mark's passing. My prayers are with you all during this difficult time.

Dear Christy, I was sorry to hear about Mark. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

So sorry for you loss.

Christie, Alyssa and family, and Nathan:
You are all in my thoughts and prayers. I worked for Mark in Alaska during your assignment there in the 1990s. It was a most tumultuous time in our company and my life personally. His kindness, wisdom, humor and expertise guided us through, and I will always be grateful for the opportunity to have known him and worked with him. Alyssa thank you for sharing the video - it certainly captured your father and your family. May his soul rest in peace.

A friend, a co-worker, a boss, a leader, a visionary, a philosopher and a doer. We need more like you Mark. You made your mark on my life and I shall always remember you and our lunch talks, basketball games and "chill-out" sessions.

I worked with Mark at MBNA and always enjoyed talking with him about a variety of subjects. He was so interesting, knew something about every subject and I especially loved to hear him talk about his time in Alaska. He was very passionate about life and spoke with great love about his family. He helped me professionally and I always appreciated and admired that. Condolences to the family. You lost a good husband and father and I know he will be truly missed. RIP, Mark.

Dear Armentrout Family,
We want to express our deepest sympathies at your loss. We cannot overstate the impact that Mark had upon so many people in his professional life. So many ARCO employees benefitted greatly from Mark's counsel, sage wisdom, and trusted friendship. Dianne and I were given so many blessings because of the courage and adventure he inspired in our family. We will miss him but not forget the wonderful impact he had upon our lives!
God bless his soul.
Mike...
