Sorry to hear this. I did not know Mark, but his Father and I were cousins and were always together when we were kids until I joined the Air Force for 10 years and we just lost touch with each other. Prayers and condolences go ou to his friends and family.

I didn't know Mark but I do know some of the pain you are enduring. My son died 2 years ago, at the age of 56, and it still hurts so much. When I saw this obituary I knew I had to share your grief. He is in a better place as is my son, and that puts my mind to rest. God bless all of you.
