Not sure what to say?

Mark was a guiding influence in my career from my first job out of law school at his firm, to my present work at one of the firm's many environmental clients, the Committee for Green Foothills. We posted a small memorial to Mark at our website, at:

His warm and wise presence will be missed.

We had the pleasure of meeting Mark while being treated at our facility. He was a delightful man, always pleasant and optimistic even in the most difficult circumstances. We are glad we had the opportunity to know him for even the brief time we spent with him. We extend our sincere sympathy to Tamara and Mark’s family and friends.

Mark has been a force in many lives. He has contributed greatly to the environment and he will be deeply missed.

Hearing of Mark's death was one of those things one expects, but hopes won't happen. Mark was an inspiration to many of us who have worked to use the law to try to protect the environment. He will be greatly missed, not only as a tremendous legal mind, but also as a kind, generous, and thoughtful person.

Mark was my son Dennis' best friend, and I knew and enjoyed him. I take pride in that I helped start his career by recommending him to the Attorney General. I am very saddened by his death, and extend my condolences to his family. Irving Perluss, Judge of the Superior Court (Retired)

I in particular felt a special affection and gratitude for Mark, as he, along with his partners Clem and Marc, gave me my first environmental law job back when I was a lowly law student in 1983. Only now,...
