Mark was such a great friend. We enjoyed his company on the back of our truck and on our back patio AND on those "spontaeous moments" that only Melissa can explain!!! He is forever in our hearts--- we will always help the children remember!

Love you Mark,

Lorraine, Matt, Brady, Justin and Isaiah.
