Not sure what to say?

I still bounce ideas off Mark and I abstract what he would think about the world situation now. He was quietly insightful, witty and brilliant.He was my last best friend and why I can reach 70 and he didn't is so unjust. I would have liked to have asked him about Sandra Bland but I don't know anyone who could give me a reponse like he would have done .

There are too many memories, my internal thoughts too mixed with the good and the not so good times. Que te vaya bien. My love goes with you.

I traveled with Mark in the late 60's and early 70's New Jersey,Washington State, Venice Beach. I am very sad I started my search to late to speak with him again before his death. I have always carried him in my heart. Very sad but glad he got to do what he talked about as a young man.

I was a friend of Mark in Ghana.I hope we can keep in contact. I am finding this difficult.

I was a friend of Mark's in Ghana and he came to visit me in the UK about 1980.I lost contact with him after that and I have since tried to find him on the internet. I have the best memories of a friend who I should have seen more

Tom and Doris and family, my mom sent this to me in Arizona. He is with the angels now.

This is how I remember you, Mark -- at the Berkeley Free Clinic or the Funny Walk Festival the day after our Organic final, an imperially slim youth with that grave half-smile and eyes so penetrating they could see right under the horizon. "I like to sleep," you told me once many years later, "because when I sleep I can still run." SO unfair, Mark, so goddamn unfair. But the heartbreak for me is the lonely guardianship of all those memories, floaters from an increasingly ephemeral past.

TOM, DORIS AND FAMILY, SO VERY SORRY TO READ THIS SAD NEWS.HE IS HOME AT PEACE NOW.YOU REMAIN IN OUR PRAYERS. GOD BLESS THE FAMILY. BERNIE AND ALVA DANZIGER WARREN GLEN, N.J.
