Memories and Condolences

I am so sorry to hear the tragic news. I met Mark in grade school where we had several classes together. He was always very kind and personable and a true-blue friend. It might seem trivial now, but I'll never forget that Mark always stuck up for me and was never swayed by kids who wanted to pick on me. He was always upbeat. Although we went to the same schools, even through college, I kind of lost track of Mark, but everything I am reading here is exactly the Mark I knew. He clearly was a great person and all-around good guy. My thoughts and sympathy are with his family and friends.

Mark was larger than life in everything that he did and he will be deeply missed. I had the pleasure of working with Mark for ten years at Bayer. I was always inspired by his boundless energy and his positive outlook. He helped shape the person that I am today and I will always look back on my time with Mark with the fondest of memories. Cheri and the girls remain in the thoughts and prayers of my family.

I did not work with Mark, but I worked there at Bayer for a while in security. The few times I spoke to Mark he was an outstanding person and very nice. I send all my prayers to his family and friends.

He only knew me as Bernie's little sister, Sissy. He always tolerated my presence as I hovered around he and my brother, doing silly things to interupt what ever they were doing. They were in High School, and they were "cool." No matter what I did, no matter how obnoxious, Mark was always sweet and kind to me. I will never forget that about him. My condolences go out to his family, I am so sorry for your loss.

I was very saddened to hear about Mark's accident. I remember riding our bikes everywhere imaginable, playing pool in the basement, and listening to the newest records. He made our "dorky" years of growing up memorable. My sincerest sympathies to his family.

I did not know Mark well, and it was in a professional capacity. But in my very first meeting with Mark I could see the seeds of great leadership. He was smart, attentive, authentic and caring. It was an honor to know him, even briefly. My deep sympathies to his family, friends and colleagues.

Cheri & Girls -
What a shock to hear of Mark's accident. We both worked with him at KC before transferring to Bayer/Berkeley, and had the highest regards for him. He was a true gentleman who was always friendly and optimistic while focused on achieving his high goals. We're certainly aware of the huge loss to Bayer, and more importantly to you. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you and we share your sadness.

Cheri -
I work with your friend Claudia Harp. She shared with me the sad news of your husband's untimely and tragic death. I felt drawn to sign the guest book and reach out to you. I lost my husband Jim, 9 months ago to a tragic bicycling accident. Although no circumstance or relationship is the same, the grief process that is felt when you lose your husband in such a way is so very unique. If you ever need a listening ear; I would be honored to be that to you. You can get my number from Claudia. May you be surrounded by God's comfort as you start your long journey of grief.
Sincerely,
Diane Northcraft

I was awake most of the night, Thursday, April 6th when I heard Mark's name on the news. I was deep in thought about how kind Mark had always been not only to me but my two younger sisters. Growing up Mark lived close by and stopped by often just to say, "hi!" Cheri, I have hundreds of fond and funny memories of you and I but... at this time I weep for your loss. Leslie

Mark was a wonderful boss, and always an encouragement to me. He lived life to the fullest and did it with kindness and respect to his fellowman. I will miss him more than words can say. And I will pray constantly for you all in this time of loss.

During our teen years, when most of us were too focused on the insignificant things, Mark seemed to have a clear vision of what was really important in life. I remember he lived in a very joyful way. Cheri, my thoughts and prayers are with you, as are those of many of us who knew you both and remember you fondly.

I'm really sorry to hear word on Mark from afar. Although we chose different paths, and ran with a different crowd; I knew Mark since Kindergarten, and we shared a similar sense of mischief which always allowed us to be friendly and laugh. Mark was adventurous/permissive enough to allow me to room with him at K.U., and I always admired his ability to work hard, play hard, and make light of life's little annoyances. A man of good taste, an appreciation for the finer things, an admirable streak of independence that I believe served him well, and not least of all a zest for life, Mark will surely be missed. My condolences to Cheri and the children.

Pat, we were so sorry to hear this news about Mark. As a mother who lost a son of 32 years, my heart grieves your lost. John Hrabal, my husband, worked with Mark at Bayer, he spoke of him often in our home and I saw him at the last Bayer dinner we were all attending. John and I both send you our love and prayers.
God bless you Pat. John Hrabal and Jeanni Drake-Hrabal
