Not sure what to say?

I keep remembering when Mark and I were both 16 years old (Springtime 1974). One Friday night I had mentioned to Mark that the following Saturday night I was "volunteered" to escort a woman to a prom that absolutely did not want to attend. Mark tried to "kidnap" me to California to get me out of going to the prom! Mark, I know your heart was in the right place, at least I think it was.

My name is Tim, at age 15 my Dad got me my very first job working for Mark at Beatle body, I Just lost my Dad in September 2019, and now to hear of Marks passing is a double whammy for me, i just found out about Mark's passing, very sad to hear this, as a Boss to me anyway Mark was a Great Guy to work for, this was where my interest in cars really took off, i haven't seen or talked with Mark for many years but none the less the influence I got while working for him at Beatle Body will stay...

I talk to Mark out loud almost every day at work. As a Fleet Manager, situations arise, as they also did at Beetle Body. I believe that Mark gives me ques via, a noise, something falling of a shelf, perhaps I glance at something that results in a solution. Or... Curses in frustration right along with me. I miss you my friend, love you more! Happy to have shared life with you!

Wow buddy -- i cant begin to tell you how sorry i am to read this. Please allow me to share a memory of Mark fixing my car right after a motorcycle mishap, where Mark was on crutches and had his leg in a cast at the tender age of 16. I was very impressed to see him contort his body to fix my car's ignition system.

And to this day i remember him teaching me how to fix a car ignition. Thank you Mark!

I'm so sorry for your loss. May you gain strength by pouring out your heart to God in prayer.
