It has been a number of years since I last saw Mark, but all my memories of him have one thing that in common--his smile, his laugh, his devislish grin! Those things are all just so "Mark"---and he shared them endlessly with us all.
The next time you think you hear thunder in the skies above, listen closely. It may just be Mark having all of heaven rocking with laughter!
He will surely be missed.

To Mark family
He was always full of something. Having gone to school and guards with him. He certainly was a ticket never knowing what he would do next. He will be missed by all. May God Bless all of you at this time.
