MARK GLAZE

My heart . I too am in recovery from alcohol, anxiety and depression. We were just a year apart and both from Colorado, and I feel as though you´re a brother. The power and the movement you created for change was awe inspiring. Love you Mark.

I knew Mark as his realtor. We worked together closely to find a home which could be his comfort and a base for his life and his work. The house buying process is so intense that it generally brings out the best and worst in us all. With Mark, it seemed to bring out his best and his best. We stayed in touch. Mark, despite it all, had the guts, fortitude and purpose to make a difference in our world. He really did. Many who will never know him will benefit from his life's work.

Mark and I went to college together. I am so, so sad that he was in so much pain. Sending all my love to his son and family/friends. He was a special guy.

Never met him but heard a tremendous amount. May he rest in peace.

Keep the faith!

I did not know Mark personally but am so touched by his obituary. I am reminded that various accomplishes and successes do not always save us from crushing self doubt. I struggle daily with doubts about my self worth. These feelings are disabling to me and those around me. I have to remind myself of my goodness. Just know that depression is a black hole and it is often hard to find the energy to climb out, no matter who is calling you from above. I wish you love and serenity as you...

Honesty is the way we grow and change and become better human beings. Thank you for this beautiful and loving tribute. Substance abuse is devastating and so very hard to overcome. Even as he struggled Mark was doing important and wonderful work to make the world a better place. I send my deepest condolences to all who love Mark and my heart goes out to you as you negotiate the complexity of grieving such a special human being.

Thank you for sharing Mark´s struggle with depression and addiction. I hope your honesty does help others. My sister died by suicide and she struggled with these issues as well. I have also been hospitalized for mental illness. It´s brave of you to share. I am so sorry for your loss. Please accept my sincere condolences on the passing of your beloved Mark.

A giant loss - he did such important, brilliant work. The tribute is extraordinarily powerful, as addiction, anxiety and depression are ubiquitous; your choice to be open will be important to so many.
