I knew Mark from St Cyril´s Grade School in Joliet. Our class sizes were so small that everyone felt like family! Mark was, hands down, the smartest child in our class. May The Good Lord grant all of you, much peace, during this difficult time. Keeping you in my prayers.

I also knew Mark from Sts. Cyril & Methodius Grade School on Henderson Avenue in Joliet. He always was very kind to everyone. He also was the smartest person in the class, hands down. I remember reading an article about Mark and his wife, Nancy, always decorating for Halloween. That was so nice for the kiddos and I'm sure he enjoyed it as well. Nancy, draw close to the Lord during this time and let His love heal you. You will be in my prayers. Jean (Banas)Caliban. Remember that you are loved.
