Mark always had a smile for everyone. A real joy to talk to and he'll be missed on Sunday mornings.

You were a great friend who will be truly missed. I'll always fondly remember our breakfasts together, our Dyngus Days @ "Mickey's", your stories of the Navy, discussing old "Dark Shadows" episodes, & all our running gags & jokes at politicians' expense, like "County Hall Tonite". You will leave behind a void that can never be filled. God blless & safe voyage, my friend.

My dear brother Mark, Markie, Marcus P. My heart is broken at your sudden loss. We had so many fun things planned for your move and I so enjoyed all the time we spent together shopping. Talking with you was always easy and football and holidays won´t be the same without you. You are no longer suffering and for that I am happy. But my sadness is from the loss of your company and your silly sense of humor. I´m sure you had the best reunion with John, Dad and Mom. I love you Marcus. Celebrate and enjoy your eternal life. Love, Mary
