Great guy, and what a great radio voice! Worked with him in medical radiology equipment sales, while I was in the KC area and remained friends through the years. My deepest condolences to his loved ones. I will miss our phone conversations. Rest in peace my friend!

My friendship with Mark spans nearly 50 years. First met Mark in Sherman TX and gave him his first job in radio. He was a great friend and we spoke regularly about the good old days in Sherman. He leaves a hole in my heart that will always be there. My deepest condolences go out to Mark’s family and friends. Godspeed Mark till we meet again.
