Not sure what to say?

I met Mark at F&K in 1988, we started there at about the same time. Mark was an HVAC engineer and an associate. I was a plumbing & fire protection designer. We worked on a number of projects together. I remember Mark to be very smart and very funny, my kind of guy. I am so sorry to hear of his passing.

I just heard of Mark's passing and am so very sad. I worked closely with Mark at F+K for many years and he was a mentor and friend. I will keep the family in my prayers and may be rest in peace.

Mark will be missed. A good friend, a good coach, a good parent. I loved watching sport games with him near by, he was always involved and happy to be there. I'll miss seeing him at Mass on Sundays.

I was so sorry to hear of Mark's passing. He was such a good person. Mark and I grew up together in Billings, becoming friends while competing on junior high and high school teams. He was a terrific teammate, hardworking and he loved to compete. His humor and personality stood out then and I don't think he ever had a bad day. We lost track over the years, only catching up at reunions. It was always great seeing him, hearing about his family, his career and his life in California. He was...

Mark gave me the opportunity to enter into my engineering career with Flack and Kurt as a young Irish immigrant to San Francisco in 1995 - I remember having a lunch interview with Mark and Jeff Blaevoet at the London Wine Bar across from F+K office at 343 Sansome Street. The waiter arrived and asked what I wanted to drink, I said water was fine, to which Mark responded call yourself Irish ?have a Pint - the interview went on and two or three pints later (Mark was thirsty), I was asked what I...

If not for Mark, I never would have gotten through CE170!

We were so sad to hear this news - Kim and boys: Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I will always remember the day that Mark entered the offices of Gayner Engineers right out of Stanford. A firm handshake and a genuine smile. His eagerness to learn and work ethic always impressed me. It was a joy being with him. He had a way about him that even if we had not seen each other for years, there was an immediate reconnection as if it was only yesterday. I will miss him dearly.

I went to high school with Mark and always enjoyed running in to him when he came back to visit his family. I'll always remember his friendliness and sense of humor. I was so very sad to hear of his passing. He will be greatly missed.

So sad to hear the news of Mark's passing Kim. We worked at WSP for 6 years together and he was always smiling and helpful as well as proactive and professional, and a wonderful friend. I remember his huge lefty golf swing, crushing it down the fairway. You will be missed greatly Mark.
