I was saddened to learn of Mark's passing. He was a friend and an inspiration. He volunteered as my Co-Chair for my Master's thesis at ASU, he would meet me whenever needed and always provided words of encouragement. I am sure I am not the only person that was touched by Mark because he was just that kind of a person.
I'll miss you Mark and now remembering even after your hospitalization you were still willing to come and meet with me to discuss my future...
My sincere sympathy to Mark's family and friends.

I just learned about Mark's passing and want to express my sympathy to all his family. Without a doubt, Mark was one of the nicest individuals in the development industry. As busy as he was, he always had time to discuss his projects with me and answer questions. This is a huge loss for our industry and I am sure for his close friends.
