i am so sorry for your loss of his presence in this world. I just found out tonight that he had passed. Dr Mahowald diagnosed my Restless Leg Syndrome in the early 90s at HCMC.

I was sorry to learn of Mark's passing. I went to high school with him at Edina. He was a year ahead of me, and I knew him because I was on the swim team and he was its student manager.
