I love you, Mark. I miss you evrey day and often chuckle when I think of something funny I know you would have found amusing. There's nothing I wouldn't give to have you back with us. I'm still trying to be better. Please, keep watching over me. I could use your help, sometimes.

Well Mark, it has been ten years already. You have been missed at the various family events and holidays. Edward and Dylan have achieved their Eagle in scouts and we would have loved to have you celebrate with us. Bella graduated from high school last year and Edward and Dylan will this year; again it would have been perfect having you here. I still often wonder why you had to go? Couldn't God have found a way? Still very much missing you!

Mark,
You were the best brother -- and my only brother. You are missed a bunch already and it has only been a couple of weeks. I will never forget the ski trips to Killington, Vermont or our many trips with mom and dad to Florida, Tennesee, California, Virginia, or Nevada. Love you and miss you! Brother Ed

Several years ago, I hung out with Mark a lot because we had mutual friends. Unfortunately, I lost touch with him but we did become friends on Facebook. A couple of months ago I ran into him at K-Mart. Of course i knew he was battling cancer. I gave him a hug- he told me he was hanging in there but also told me how hard it was. He also talked about his skin breaking out. I told him I missed him and that I'd been praying for him and would continue. We hugged again and we said goodbye. I believe everything happens for a reason. I'm so glad I saw him that day. RIP Mark. I'll NEVER forget you <3

"Some people come into our lives and quietly go. Others stay for a while, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the same."
That was Mark.
We are so saddened by this tremendous loss.

Barbara, Ed and family....So saddened to hear of the loss of your son...the years go by so quickly...I remember him as a polite, happy little boy, the days in Bear Creek...what a handsome, successful man he became. May you be comforted by happy memories and the love and support of those who loved him. St. John Chrysostom said, "THOSE WHOM WE LOVE AND LOSE ARE NOT WHERE THEY WERE BEFORE. THEY ARE NOW WHEREVER WE ARE." May you feel Mark's loving presence with you always.
I'm visiting Fred's family in SC and won't be able to attend Mark's service on Saturday, but you will be in my thoughts and prayers,
Peace and love,
Barbara

Mark and I recently re-connected our friendship after I had learned of his illness from his brother Eddie, and I recall our last communication in February in which he stated that his cancer had spread and I had told him to remain strong and that he had the support and love from his family and friends. I have known Mark for many years and though we had lost contact I was truly glad to have been able to rekindle that friendship. I have known the entire Jasulevicz family for years and my deepest condolences go out to them. I know Mark fought this cancer to the end, and he stayed strong till the end. I have to share something Mark during his struggle with cancer, had asked after all these years how my family was and to make sure they ate their veggies, and this will stay with me forever. He had a heart of gold, and love for life. He brightened so many lives by his presence. Please note I had just signed up to represent Guard Insurance Group at RiverCommon on June 23-24 during the Dragon Boat Race. The reason I signed up for this event-an event that I've never done before- was in honor of Mark as I knew he worked there and would've loved to be in this race. I have decided to do everything I can to win this event in his memory!! May God Rest his Soul! God Bless the entire Jasulevicz family. My heart breaks, you will be in my thoughts and prayers.

We are saddened by Mark's death, but remember the fun times we had with him while skiing in Vermont. His laugh was one that filled the room. He will always be remembered, never forgotten. Our prayers are with the entire family as you experience the loss of his life. He now is at peace with the Father. If we can help in anyway, please let us know. God Bless!
