Dear Reeder family:

My deepest condolences our prayers are with you. I went to school with Mark in the 4th grade and the thing that sticks out in my mind was his amazing sense of humor. He would allways make the class burst out in laughter at the most inopportune times for the teacher Mrs. Funston. Find comfort in knowing that his amazing sense of humor brought joy to so many people,he was a riot! Job well done. God be with you.
