Dear Muriel and all,
I was so sorry to hear of Mark's death. I have been out of touch with all of you for a very long time, but my love for all of you has not diminished one little bit. I quickly remembered the many wonderful times we all had together, on Front Street, visiting the Meades, etc. Mark was such a joy, and a dear friend to me even though he was only 7 or 8 at the time. I send my deepest sympathies to you and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. My email is...

I wish to express our families deepist sympathy to Marks Mother and family. I shared a child Micheal w/Mark who is having a hard time with all his emotions as you can image.
I have never seen a man have more respect for his Mother & family than Mark. He loved all of you and would do anything for any of them. I wish I could write something to take this pain away from the family and children. All I can say I remember the good times we shared and how much he enjoyed life. He will be missed...
