I am very sad to hear of Mark's passing. I knew him from the Nebraska Army National Guard. He was ALWAYS a caring peron. He cared about his soldiers and was always willing to lend a helpig hand to anyone who needed it. When I had to move a few years back and wasn't allwoed to keep my cat, he tok my cat. It was very hard to give her up but, knowing that Mark was taking her and caring for her made it easier on me. God picked a good one when he choose Mark - he will make a great angle for someone. My thoughts and prayers are with you all!

I am so sadden to hear of Mark's passing. I knew him for many years in the Nebraska ARmy National Guard. He was such a great person - always cared about the welfare of his soldiers and was always willing to lend a helping hand to all. When I had to move a few years back and wasn't allowed to keep my cat, he took my cat in and I know she went to a good home. It was hard for me to give her up but, knowing that she went to Mark made it easier for me. I hope she is still doing well - I still miss her. My thoughts and prayers are with your entire family during this difficult time. God picked a good one when he decided to take Mark! He will be a good angle for someone.

I am very sorry to hear about Mark's death. I knew Mark when he worked full time for the Nebraska Army National Guard. He always had a smile when he came into my office. I remember him as a kind sole, always pleasant and caring. My thoughts and prayers to his family and friends as I know you will all miss him very deeply.
