Not sure what to say?

In my heart forever, thank you Mark, for being so nice to me. Fred Froelich.

One of the kindest and most generous friends I ever had. My sincerest condolences to his family. I had no idea of his passing until I thought of him today and decided to "Google" him. RIP dear Pritchie.

I have known Mark as a friend of the family for more than 40 years. He was a great guy, smart and full of humor. He had many of the same interests as my father and me -- cars, electronics, gadgets. He will be sorely missed.

How sad to learn that we have lost the bright light that was Mark. He and I were friends in high school and shared more escapades and happy times than my mother, for one, would care to hear about! Even at that young age, Mark was charming, confident, and the most loyal of friends. I'm grateful to have had him in my life and to have been the beneficiary of his friendship.

I have known Mark for a long time... he taught me how to drive. When I got two speeding and one street racing ticket during my first week with a license, Mark was so proud of me, he came to my court appearance! Many fun times during the '60s! Mark will be missed!

Mark was my friend from our first class together at Southside Sr. High School, in Rockville Centre. We remained friends for many years. I will miss him.

Mark was a really fun guy. Lived life to the fullest. Loved his Cannonball stories. He will be greatly missed.

Mark was a gifted serial entrepreneur. He started and grew perhaps the finest electronics repair facilities in America! Mark was a mentor to me on many levels as I grew my business and family. One of his businesses was in the same Long Island industrial park as mine. We were of very similar minds and passions.

We met at the 1979 Cannonball. Mark raced in the U.S. Expresses, and enjoyed racing his Ferraris and other cars for many years after selling his businesses and retiring at an...

Mark had a profound impact on me. He had no agenda, just a truly nice person.
