Not sure what to say?

Our sister said it all...We miss you and think of you every day. How different our lives would have been if it would have been God´s will for you to stay. But, it was your time to be in heaven. We pray that you continue to watch over us and send signs that you are close. You are always on our hearts.

Mark, 21 years and you left a big whole in our lives. Now you have more company where you are. Hope you welcomed Fred with open arms. You two, along with all the others who have gone before us, are our protectors. We miss you deeply. Watch over us....

Mark, I can't believe you have been gone from us for 20 years! I became a hospice nurse because of your illness and have tried to carry on your legacy caring for patients that need help, especially with cancer. I have told multiple families about you and how special you were to me. I take great pride in telling my families how hard you fought, and how by the end you accepted death so gracefully and that we were all given the opportunity to say "goodbye for now". I often think of you when I...

I can't believe it's been 20 years since we lost him. We always remember and miss him so much. His passing left a big void in our family. The years march on and the world has changed. We know you are in a much better place, with Mom, Dad, grandparents, and all those who have gone before us. Love you forever, dear little brother.

We are approaching the 20 year anniversary of losing our brother Mark. Time has gone too fast and so much has changed over the years. Our lives were never the same after he left us. Always in our hearts and minds. Now at peace with our mom who passed away in 2020. I miss you dear brother. I think of you and pray to you. Watch over all of us and put in a good word to "the man upstairs" (as you said), to save our country, this world and all of us! Love always and forever...Sharon

It´s hard to believe it has been 18 years since Mark left this earth. So much has changed. We have had births, deaths, marriages, divorces, happiness and sadness. We love and miss him every day. We pray to him and ask him to watch over us! Thanks for the memories little brother. Miss you!

You are only gone from this Earth. You live forever in Eternity and in our hearts. Miss you little brother. Watch over us all.

Walked by Mark's tree and his stone underneath it this last Sunday. 18 years gone by without him seems unbelievable. I continue to miss him and his off color sense of humor. His life continues to live on in our memories and hearts.

January 18, 2021 - While on the Riverwalk in Parkville. This eagle image on the bench caught my eye. When I looked closer, I was stunned to read the date January 18, 1961!

It was today's exact date 60 years later! By the way, I am turning 60 this year too!

What a miracle gift the Lord gave me - although I never knew Mark, I honor you on this day of your birth!

Thank you for the opportunity to share this story with his loved ones. Proverbs 16:9
