Mark was a great guy with a big heart. I worked with him for several years at Grainger and am in shock to hear this news. He was someone that you would always remember. He was always patient and kind. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. So sad to hear this news. I know you are in a good place and are not suffering.
