Dear Sherryl and the entire Lagrone Family, We are so saddened to hear of Mark's passing. Our family is blessed to have known him known him during Anthony's 4 year baseball career at A-West and we consider him a good friend. He will be missed by all! Unfortunately, Anthony is out of town, and his schedule won't allow him to return in time, and we are unable to attend the funeral services next week, but we will keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers as you all go through this difficult time. Heaven is gaining a great man and a great coach!
Sincerely, Tony & Debbie
