My deepest sadness and sympathy go out to the Families and Friends of Mark. I never met Mark before until that morning. I was driving westbound on Plainfield and I noticed the accident had happened minutes before. I immediately stopped and went to his aid to see if I could help. The only thing I knew to do was pray, so I put my hand on his shoulder and I prayed for Mark and asked Jesus to come. Several minutes later the police and emergency vehicles arrived....He will always be in my prayers. God Bless.
