Dear Zgalich Family,
I have been gone for so long from the United States and the Philly Area I had no idea. Just this week I was thinking about contacting Mark and Andrea. I was trying to look up Mark on Face Book. When I found Brion Kelly and we started talking he told me of Marks Passing. I am so sorry. Andrea, I think of you often and our times together at Mark's Parents house. We had so much fun together. I know it's been almost a year now, but the pain I'm sure is still there. You will all be in my prayers. GOD BLESS, JIM FABER

Dear Zgalich Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I just learned of Mark's passing from the Ryan Alumni letter. Mark is so much a part of my fond childhood memories at CTK. I remember all of us in class laughing when we should have been working. I smile just thinking of those days. He will be missed.

Dear Zgalich Family,
I just learned of Mark's passing today and would like to offer my deepest sympathies.
Mark and I were roomates our junior year at J&W.
Although I had not spoken to Mark since our days in college together, I will always remember the great times we had. Especially fishing, when he seemed his happiest.
I will always remember the friendship and time I was fortunate to spend with Ziggy.
He will be missed, but memories of him will not be forgotten.

We are truly sorry for your loss. It has been many years since we've seen Mark yet his kindness is always remembered. His vibrant smile was always able to cheer me up and the many memories we shared will always stay with me. He made Senior year homeroom, Sears, down the shore and just hanging out memorable and will be deeply missed by all. Your family will be in our prayers.
How innocent we all were..

Dear Zgalich Family
I just received the news today of Mark's passing through a friend. I am sorry for your loss of Mark. My prayers are with Mark and your family during this time. I have recent memory of Mark I would like to share, so here it is ......
Just this past July as I was leaving one of my business accounts and I heard a voice say "Hey Sully". I am thinking no one has called me that since high school. I turned to see who it is...and it was Mark. I hadn't seen him in about 8 years or so, but it is always cool to see a fellow Morrell Parker. We talked for a bit and laughed. That memory will always remain with me.

I want to send out my sincere condolences to the Zgalich family. I was the Archbishop Ryan Student Manager on the 1989 Soccer Team. I was new and didn't know a lot of the players. Mark always made me feel welcomed to the team and that kindness and warmth carried on throughout the 89-90 school year and in the summer leagues that followed. He will be sorely missed. A great loss for all of us who knew Mark at Archbishop Ryan HS.

To Mark's family and friends. Our thoughts are with you during this sad time. A friend gave us this poem when our son, Joshua passed away. We hope you find comfort in its words: Don't think of him as gone away..his journey's just begun, life holds so many facets..this earth is only one. Just think of him as resting from the sorrows and the tears, in a place of warmth and comfort, where there are no days and years. Think how he must be wishing that we could know today, how nothing but our sadness can really pass away. And think of him as living in the hearts of those he touched..for nothing loved is ever lost..and he was loved so much.

I would like to extend my most heartfelt condolences to Mark's family. Although I never had the pleasure of meeting Mark, I do, however have long standing close ties to several of his family members. Claire and I went to school together and although I have not seen her since then (except in photos) our lives have been somewhat paralleled. We each raised 2 sons, we each recently became first time grandmothers to beautiful baby girls . I have been kept abreast of all these events through Mark's aunts and cousins and now I am deeply saddened by this latest shocking news. My heart goes out to all who knew and loved Mark.
