Not sure what to say?

Marks people.... Just heard Suite Judy Blue Eyes on Amazon Music ...thought of you and our time spent in MHHS. Thought I would google you and read this obit. So sad........ Lost touch after HS but knew u were destined for greatness. RIP my friend.....

To the Fitzgibbons Family: My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.

My sympathy goes to Fitzgibbons family.

It was wonderful getting to know you over the years. I was always fascinated by your creativeness and enjoyed hearing your stories about the theatre projects and movies you worked so hard on. Your stories exhibited the passion you had for your work. You can rest well knowing you were able to live your life doing what you loved so much.

I remember Uncle Mark as thoughtful and inquisitive. I will miss his creative cards that were personalized with so much care and ingenuity. Warren and I will think of you every time we're in the Brooklyn area. Love, Alexis

As humble as Mark was is as humble as this Obit was written for him. Mark's talents went far beyond what most people are gifted with.

Brooklyn misses him, we miss him and the art world has one less brilliant mind in...
