Dear Elaine,
I am so sorry to hear about Mark´s passing. He was a great friend to my husband Mel who passed away in 2009. Mel looked up to Mark and all of his architectural talents. He loved working for him, especially traveling to Dallas, Connecticut and New York City. You and I even went to New York City on one of their work trips. May God give you strength in the days ahead. My sincere condolences are with you.
