Dear Friends, Mark was a member of the
Fleet Reserve Association and we will
miss our Shipmate. I wish we had been
notified earlier about this very long
illness, we could have paid visits and
made life more bearable. The following
is the Chaplain's prayer for funerals
for the member: Our Heavenly Father,
our great Commander of all souls, in whose infinite wisdom, justice, and mercy, our Shipmate has ended this earthly voyage, grant we beseech You,
that we who are still to continue our course amid earthly joys and friendships, dangers, temptations and
troubles, may evermore be protected by
You, and finally come without shipwreck
to the haven of eternal salvation. Amen.
