I remember Mark as a talkative person with a great sense of humor and laughter. We met for the first time in June 1977 during my stay in Bakersfield, CA, as a young Exchange Student from Sweden. It is hard to know life became miserable. Rest In Peace, Mark!

I am very sad to hear of his passing. My sincerest condolences to his mother, brother and sister. Mark and I attended grade school (William Penn), Junior High (Emerson) and BHS together. He was in a great friend and positive, uplifting spirit. We did our first car deal together, swapping out my super sweet '69 VW Bug for his '69 El Camino. Mark was a quintessential Driller through and through and his passing is a devastating loss to the entire Driller family.

Mark was my teammate, truly a great guy. It was a pleasure to have known him. I remember him as so happy and positive. The kind of guy you could talk to for a few minutes and he was your friend. Although, I haven't seen mark in years I'm saddened to hear of his passing. It reminds me how fragile we are. I feel like my world just got a bit smaller. Mark will live on in my memories. My condolences to his family.
