Karen and family....I am so sorry for your loss. The loss is earth's, but the gain is Heaven's because of Mark's faith and trust in Jesus as his savior. He was a great friend and accountant for Ferne and myself for a number of years. Our conversations were always robust, peppered with laughter, and enjoyed to the fullest. He was always a Christian gentleman and cared deeply for his clients. We will keep you in our prayers! Grace...mercy...peace and the comfort of God be upon you

My relationship with Mark began when I became a client. He wasn't just my accountant, he and Karen quickly became friends. He always had my best interest at heart, providing guidance as my business grew. He was sincere, funny, loved the Lord and so proud of his family. Karen and Mark were like family and I'm forever grateful for that relationship.

Here's to precious memories of the ballfield! Here's to the best coach ever. Mark Durkee, we will miss you until we see you again. Thank you for being the best at everything you set out to do. Our prayers to your sweet family as they mourn this tremendous loss. Our love to all.

All my love to Karen, KJ, Corey, Amy,Chris, his grandchildren and all his family. You had a wonderful husband, Dad, father in law and Pops. I had a wonderful friend and Boss. Thank you for sharing him with me. His earthly absence will be great but knowing Jesus we will see him again. He will always be in your hearts. Prayers for all of you Debbie Parrott
