wonder.

I remember working with Mark as an
altar server. He was one of the
best ones we had, committed and
dedicated. I am very sorry to hear
of his passing, but I know he is in
a better place now still serving
God. My condolences to the Gilmore
family.

I only need to close my eyes to see
your smile or to be in a quiet place
to hear your laugh. It is students
like you who make teaching worth
doing. You will be missed.
