While I heard about Mark's passing, for some reason I just received this legacy request. I remember Mark fondly from both Elementary School and from years at St. Andrews. Mark was always kind and had a great sense of humor. He represented Mercer Wenzel well. Sad to see so many of my generation slipping away. RIP Mark!

Kris and Karen....So sorry for the loss of your brother. We kept in contact over the years and I sure will miss talking to him. He had such a big heart and always spoke of his relationship with God. Prayers to you and the family.

Dear Chris and Family: We are all deeply saddened by the early passing of Mark - he was always the most kind and gentle of men and a pleasure to have in any company. I knew him from tennis, early on as I brought our family to Delray Beach, in the 1980´s. I enjoyed playing tennis with Mark and a like cadre of friends at the old Delray Beach Tennis Center, downtown. The relationship continued through tennis and that association of friends, well into the late 2018´s - when he found an apartment...
