In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

Muzz, Bonnie, Danna, Terry, and Family,

I just received word about Mark's passing - and on his birthday. I am deeply, genuinely sorry for the loss to the family and to others who knew and loved him. As he rests in peace, I will pray for all of you during your time of grief. I know how close, loving and caring you are and, therefore, what a difficult time this must be for all of you. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to reach out to me.

My heart is with Mark's family. Mark was my best friend for over 40 years through thick and thin. No one ever made me laugh like Mark did. We did Thalian theatre together and traveled Europe for 2 summers in the late 1970's. Oh, the stories we had to tell. A few days before Mark passed, he appeared to me in a dream. I felt someone behind me. I turned around, and he was standing there with a head full of well cared for hair and glowing skin and smiled broadly as if to say, "It's all good." I...

Mark was a wonderful friend. I have many happy memories of the times we spent together.

I'm so, so sorry to hear of Mark's passing. It's certainly a loss for the ILM flight attendant group. I flew with Mark often; he was such a good guy to spend a day with in a cramped, noisy airplane. Always smiling that bright, white smile! I remember flying with him when he was on some kind of diet where you were only supposed to eat fruit before 10 AM. He carried a big bag of fresh fruit on a 4-day trip. We kidded him that we could always find him a crowded terminal or aircraft for the...

I was very sad to hear that Mark is gone although I haven't seen him in many years. Have wonderful memories from performing with him at Thalian Hall. I still wear a beautiful heart locket he gave me when I moved away. He was a sweet, funny, very talented man. My condolences to his family.

Mark was so special to work with. I was delighted to see him at our annual Piedmont Christmas party but was saddened to hear of his cancer battle. He was one of our own and I am so sorry to hear of his passing. Please know that I am thinking of him and of his family.

Our condolences to all the Thomas family. I've known Mark and all the Thomas's since our Bradford days and treasure my close friendship with Danna. I know Mark will be missed by all of you. Thinking of you at this difficult time.
