Dear Beverly, you and Mark were both so kind to me. I have fond memories of how lovely you both were to me, as a new New Yorker working at Ferrier Restaurant. My thoughts are with you. Sending you lots of love

I first met Mark and Beverly when they walked up the gangway of the luxury ship Sea Goddess. They spent a lot of time with the crew. They were our friends.
Later, I visited them. It was then that Mark took me fishing, loading his collectable car with antique fishing rods. When I showed surprise, Mark said, "What is the point in owning things if you don't use it?" I have applied that rule ever since. Mark was a very kind hearted man and will be sorely missed by all. My sincerest condolences to Beverly.

My family and I are very sad to hear this news,
I grew up with Mark, Marko we called him.
Mark , Bob Fletcher, and I lived at 1514 State
Street in West Columbia,S.C. for about two
years or more. We had a big and large time.
I loved his whole family. Mark's father was a
great example for all of Kershaw High boys
that grew up with Mark. Very sad day for me,
we grew apart at time when needed each
other most. Happen's it seems to us all.
He and I had a ton of fun. I feel I will see
him again.

I will always cherish the memories of working with Mark and Mr. Foster in Greenville on Manley Street. He and Mrs. Beverly were one of a kind and such generous, caring people. The times of traveling with them to NY will be forever in my heart. Praying for comfort and peace during the days to come. Rest well Mr. Sullivan.
