Mark Vranes

So sorry for condolences.

Diane and Family, I had the blessing of meeting Mark and your family many years ago during my teenage years. I have the fondest memories of Mark and cannot think of anyone other than My Father or my Uncle Henry Fosson that truly live the life of being the "Best Father" and teacher. They lived their lives showing us all how to do better and give back. Years later as the neighbor to Helen Nilsson, Mark continued to impress me how to helped her in her elder years. May the memories of Mark live...

On behalf of the senior missionaries of the California Oakland/San Francisco Mission of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, we express our sincere condolences. We worked alongside Mark and have felt his love for the missionaries and for this work. We have felt his kindred spirit. We know of his love and flet his friendship. We will miss him.

As longstanding members of the Bay and Golden Gate Wards of the San Francisco Stake, this is indeed sad news to hear. Our deepest condolences and love go out to his family and close friends in his loss. We know of his goodness, and his dedication to the Gospel of Jesus Christ and will always hold his memory in the highest regard.

We are unable to attend memorial services because we are traveling. We extend our love and deepest sympathy to the Vranes Family. We have cherished memories of Mark and all the Vranes family. May God bless you all during the coming days.

I went to high school with Mark at South H.S. in SLC. He was a good guy then, and I see from this obituary that he has only added success and kindness to his name and legacy in the ensuing years. God bless such souls, and the wife, children, parents, and siblings (and others) who help create and sustain these mortals as they fraternize with the rest of us! He was not a famous man but a good man. Oh Lord, how we need more of these!

Mark Vranes was my bishop in the San Bruno Ward. I thought highly of him. He was always welcoming, warm, funny, had sound advice, and his whole countenance showed what a big heart he had! He is missed. Love to you Diane.
