Not sure what to say?

I had the honor and pleasure of working with Mark in 'The Importance of Being Earnest' at Heritage/GRCC. He reminded me of a kindly reverend always open to talk or a chat about anything. And most helpful on stage during rehearsals if you'd missed a line or blocking. Such a professional, even when recovering from vocal surgery, so dedicated to theater performance. Such a fun and amusing talent with a quick wit, who loved to entertain. He will be missed.

I became acquainted with Mark a few years back, while taking adult classes at Grand Rapids Ballet. He was friendly and kind and a wonderful pianist, and I always enjoyed class when he accompanied us.

I had the pleasure of acting in a few plays with Mark. He was so generous an actor, smart, and fun to be around in the green room and after the shows. He's now passed on to a grander stage. May he, and I'm sure that he will, rest in peace.

Mark was a wonderful guy, smart, funny, kind, and talented. Will never forget our days at Luther High School South. May your memories comfort you.

We became great friends with Mark and as a result, Mark joined us, as well as a few others from Jones, in a move to Grand Haven, MI where our dream was to start our own theatre company there. While those plans didn't pan out the way we...

Sending love and condolences! I enjoyed Marks musical talent and his great sense of humor.
