Read MoreI had the pleasure of knowing Mark since he was about 8 years old. I was his recreation leader at Adam School and was blessed to be able to coach him in Little League and later in football.

Mark was my classmate at St. Joseph High School. I have not seen Mark in many years but I never forgot him. His passing is very sad news for me. May God welcome Mark into heaven and reunite him with his family waiting for him there. Rest in Power brother.
