Mark Richard Williams

As I try to prepare to go to a funeral for the man across the street from me, I thought if Mark and the family he left behind. Marks funeral was truly a celebration of his life yet knowing the times he missed with his children- with my children- still hurts. He would have loved Maggie's wedding and been a great resource for Walker during these past difficult years. (maybe even Gareth)
But I see how much of Mark there is that lives inside his children. I'm trying to find comfort here...

You will truly be missed tell leroy I love him

Having shared laughter,love, joy but most of all LIFE with Mark, I can not wait until our spirits meet again.

I first met Mark, Olivia, Reid, and Ian in 1998, my senior year at Wesleyan when I began babysitting those extraordinary kids. Mark was one of those people you couldn't help but like. It was evident in everything he did how very important his children were to Mark. It saddens me now to learn of his passing and thinking of how much his children have lost. Kids, my thoughts are with you.

Love always!

Although it has been years since I have seen or spoken with Mark, I have very fond memories of him from the early years in Jr. High and High School. As I read through the thoughts of old friends and family, I vividly remember the days of Mark and Dave Slupe hanging out--and it makes my heart smile. My prayers are with you--family and friends. God Bless you Mark--thank you for being you.

Mark Williams was an exceptional person. I was blessed to know him & call him friend at LB. His astounding wit was greatly appreciated.No one could forget his speech at our graduation. Especially his brother. My prayers are with his family at this difficult time.
God had a higher calling for this exceptional person. God Bless Mark, Rest in Peace.

I also grew up in Kings Park and was a '79 classmate of Mark at Lake Braddock. The last time I saw Mark was when I was visiting the Wm & Mary campus for a soccer game my sophomore year at Va. Tech. I ran into Mark in their dining hall and he immediately told me what to eat and what not to eat there! Mark was always so funny, smart, and friendly to everyone. I have enjoyed catching up with his life by reading all the amazing testimonials by friends, family, colleagues, and patients. He...

It so saddened me to hear about Mark's death. I have such wonderful memories of the laughing, joking, intelligent young man that I went to junior high and high school with at Lake Braddock and the wonderful man he became during our years at William and Mary. My heartfelt sympathies and condolences are sent to his family. May his loving and laughing ways warm your memories forever.

We never met Mark, but we know Kim well and love her and her family. Words do not exist that express how sorry we all are for the loss of Mark, however, we know he is in a better place because he lived as we all should live-loving our neighbor as ourselves. From what we have heard about him from Kim, he truely had compassion for his fellow man and he lived by treating others with repect and dignity. God Bless his family and may his soul rest in peace.
