Not sure what to say?

WoW Shocked ...just learned Mark passed away a couple years ago. I was his nurse at Long Beach Memorial Med Center after his knee surgery by Dr Jackson. What a truly great family when I met his mom Delores and Dad Bud. May he rest peacefully. I remember getting him out of bed post surgery to use crutches that were the same height as me 5´8". When his friends and parents were all in the room I felt I was among the great redwoods! He had a kind and gentle personality. Blessings to the family...

Mark touched everyone he met. He spoke at one of our talent meetings and later at a book signing we hosted. Mark was so very gracious and friendly. He took time to share his life and what he learned. We will miss him. This very extraordinary person. Thank you Mark.

To the family, many, many friends, and fans to one of the greatest blocking defensive star with the Utah Jazz who ever played this game. May you find comfort in your wealth of fond memories together with Mark Eaton. May the God of comfort bless your grieving hearts with strength, loving kindness and peace as the world copes with the loss of Mark. He will be missed, but his contributions not forgotten.

A wonderful man who chose to stay here in Utah and become a valuable part of our community. We were so grateful to have him here.
He will be missed! My sympathy and prayers go out to his family.
