Not sure what to say?

Mark was truly a great man. Mark and I spent a great deal of time grwoing up together thru middle school and high school, spending days just talking cars and trucks. He helped me in so many ways when I was restoring my 50 Chevy. Mark was always one to lend a hand no matter who it was or what it was. There are few words that can describe such a Man. GOD must have needed him to tinker on his "Rides". I still catch myself looking for him in his truck and the big arm wave out the window. ...

It is going to be a very tough adjustment not having Mark around;hanging out on my deck,his front porch or out in back of his house playing with the dogs.I have so many good memories of time we spent together,usually him helping me with a car,getting my weedeater started or talking and napping in his backyard while the dogs ran amuck.Mark,you were a great friend and are truely going to be missed,wish you were here buddy! I miss you. God Bless.

Sorry didn't find out till today that Mark had passed,truly a good person had time for everyone.I did not see Mark real often once a month or so,the last time I brought a Snapper mower over to him because I knew he fixed them up and would give them to people who needed one.Lisa you must be a saint to have put up with all the phone calls Mark got for automotive help me included,I will miss him ,truly one of a kind.

Mark was a very good neighbor,he would do anything for you.I'm going to miss sitting outside on his front porch talking,sometimes really about nothing but it was fun.I'm also going to miss doing yard work with him.Mark thank you for helping my grandpa!I'm really going to miss you Mark!

I wouldn't have asked for another neighbor to live across the street from. Mark was always helpful. He insisted on taking a look at my car before I drove to the Lake of the Ozarks for the first time, he always took care of our dogs Lucy and Gibbs even though he didn't know Gibbs for long, and when we'd take the dogs down to the creek, he was always good to talk to. Even though at the time I didn't like it, I'm really going to miss his 4-7 calls a day that always seemed to start at 7:30 in the...

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal. The community has lost a truly good man. Lisa, we are so sorry for your loss. Mark was always kind, thoughtful and gracious to us.

For the longest time I only knew him as Miles, the big guy at Bills Performance. As time went on I had him built a couple of engines for me and our friendship started. Mark as I then started calling him was always there for advice either on his front porch or on the phone. I will charish the memories of taking him to the track with me to watch me race my car with his motors in it! From now on with every win I'll think of you and all you taught me. God speed Mark you wont be forgotten! ...

Lisa sorry for your loss, Mark was a good hearted man. I will always remember how he used to come over and visit and tease me while I was on my bus route the last three years. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Mark was a special friend. He thought so much of our daughters and they the same of him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
