Mary Lou, My thoughts are with you in this very sad time. Glad Mark and you visited me in Naples a few years back so that I can focus on that. Soon as you are up to it, give me a call girlfriend. Stay strong in the meantime. Thinking of you.

All of us at the Cutler Fulton Office considered Mark part of our family! We will truly miss the dynamic presence of Mark's almost daily visits to the office as he always picked our spirits up with his big smile and wit!
He will always be remembered fondly by Mary Lou's family here at work.
Sincerely,

I am sorry to hear about Mark. He is actually in a better place now but will be missed tremendously here on Earth. I wish that I were able to make it home, to Ohio, but Mark knows that I am there in spirit. He was a great man that I will miss conversing with. My prayers are with him and the rest of our family.

It would be difficult and maybe even impossible for me to find the words to ease your pain. I pray that the Lord will draw the family near and together, and that HE will comfort you in the tender way that only HE can do at this time.

Mary Lou and Family
I am so sorry to hear of the unexpected loss of Mark. I met you briefly a few month's ago in Sam's Club but I have known Mark for many years. Ralph & I met him when he had the cleaners on 25th Street. He was a very special person. You have my deepest and sincere sympathy in this time of grief. I have been where you are now. I lost my husband of 50 years in July of 2007. The gift of memories, your family and friends, will be a source of comfort in the difficult days ahead. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Trust that God will give you strength and will fill your hearts with His Peace.
