Mark Lanier

Mark you will be missed. You were an inspiration to me with your sharp wit and intelligence, and always open to new ideas. One of the very few keepsakes from my career has been a newsletter you wrote up regarding a stock idea that i gave you that worked out nicely for you probably 10 years ago. and i will make a toast with the armanac liquor you sent me as a thank you in your honor this evening. i will definitely miss seeing you at investor conferences and at meetings in Boston and...

I was fortunate enough to know Mark as a peer, as well as a friend. He was one of the very few people in our industry that was universally loved and adored by everyone who met him. Mr. Lanier also had a very special bond with my Dad, which is near impossible to establish. What made Mark to exquisite, was the fact that he was so accomplished yet so humble with everyone he met. Nearly no one in the world makes everyone around them better with their presence. I speak on behalf of our industry,...

Oh dear, I am so sorry to find out just last night of Marks passing. I Share the Lanier family name and was gifted to have known Mark recently albeit not as deeply as I wished.He and family visited us in Alberta when Estie Lanier passed. His plans to stay a visit us longer were cut short. Later and so generously Mark mailed me and my brothers a wonderful gift too. I was so much hoping to visit him in his home state. My oh my... I am in awe of his legacy and myself am almost exactly his age,...

My condolences to family and friends. Take time to grieve and celebrate a life well-lived. The loss of a loved one is truly difficult no matter how long we have them with us, but remember Almighty God promises to be near to all those calling on him (Psalm 145:18)

Dear Lanier Family...so saddened to read of your loss...I have lovely memories of selling 54 Welland Road to Mark...and of staying in touch over the years...he was kind enough to let my family re-visit 54 after my husband died and the family were together at the Golden Temple to remember him...it was clear to me how much he loved the four of you.

Please accept my sympathies for the loss of your loved one . May God be with you and your family during this time of great sorrow Please read Jeremiah chapter 29 verse 11 and 2nd Corinthians chapter 1 verses 3 and 4.

A very special person that had a great influence on my life. Mark's wisdom, ethics and patience were a strong influence in my life.

Kind thoughts are with the family in your time of grief. May fond memories bring you comfort during these difficult days. Psalms 9: 9, 10
