Mark D. PACIONE

I recently saw you and Mark being interviewed regarding the possibility of an upcoming Papal Visit. Mark taught me in High Li over 20 years ago. His laughter and smile was contagious. My High Li experience has had such a positive impact on my life because of Mark and Father Farmer. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Carol,
I am so sorry to hear of your husband's passing. My deepest sympathy and prayers go out to you and your family.

I discovered the message today of the loss of Mark. It was sad news to me. Mark and I had been freinds for many years and always enjoyed visits at national youth ministry events. Our work had been similar for many years serving young people in the Catholic Church. Our work both changed to longer term planning and we enjoyed visits on the phone to catch up. It will be a great loss for the family, yet know Mark was always the best at what he did. The world has become a much better place because...

I met Mark last summer at Baltimore City Work Camp. What an amazing influence he was on the teenagers and adults alike. He was so giving of his time, talents and gifts. He will be missed by so many. Sorry we couldn't make it back to Maryland for the services. May he rest in peace with our Lord.

Although we did not know Mark, we would like to give our condolences to Beth, whom we know thru our son, and the rest of his family and friends. May he rest in peace with Lord he so much loved,and may the Lord give his wife and daughter the strength to heal and continue his legacy.

Beth, we are so sorry to hear about the loss of your dad. We are very grateful that he was a part of Kevin's life. Kevin always came home with such great stories about the times he spent with your family. Your dad always seemed to be a big part of those stories. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. Pam and Larry Wieciech

When I saw the picture of Mark's smiling face, I knew immediately what true joy was/is and how he always spread it around. As my family has already shared, Mark and Carol played an important part in the lives of myself and my two brothers. He was such shining and inspirational reflection of God and how we as youth can be close to Him. Mark touched the lives of so many people and I only hope that there is someone out there who can continue to spread his message to and love/care of the youth...

I knew Mark from when I attended St. Margarets school from 6th to 8th grade. He was such a light to myself and my classmates during our time there. He will be truly missed; not just by those who knew him but by those who will never have the opportunity. In a world such as this he made hope, light and love available to many. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and many friends.
