Mark was on my team at DE and was always reliable and kind, an incredibly high performer. We shared a love of vinyl records and I will miss talking about that and learning about new artists from him. No words can describe our sadness. Rest in peace, Mark. My condolences to the family.

Mark welcomed me to the Cision office and made sure I was set up and ready to go. He was always an email away from saving the day. I was sorry when I wasn't with him anymore. He was just an easy person to be around and work with. The world is a sadder place without him in it.

I am very sad to hear about Mark`s passing.
He was good hearted, humorous and always happy to share his best recipes for the famous PRIME pot lucks.
My condolences to his family. Mark will be missed.

Mark was such a sweet and funny guy. I'm so glad I got the opportunity to work with him at Prime and to also to see him embrace his comedic side.

Condolences to Mark's family.
Mark was a great person to know. I remember talking with him about our shared interested of listening to The Doors, cooking food, and video games. He was always looking out for us and wanted to help us as much as he could. There was never a situation that Mark couldn't fix. I still remember our last conversation where he wanted to help me start a dough for Rye bread.
We'll never forget you Mark.

Mark was always a kind person and able to help with anything tech related that was happening at work. He cared about trying to make your day easier and better.
He had a good sense of humor, and wanted to make people laugh.
It was always fun to see what new foods he was experimenting with on social media and how much joy cooking brought him.

I arrived somewhat confused in the PRIME Research office in Ann Arbor for the first time. Mark was the good soul who got me set up, asked me about my journey there, and I continued working with him on every visit.
Hearing about what happened made me speechless. I remember chatting with him about hardware, tech, games, and life - as if it were yesterday. I wish all the best to his family and am very sorry for their loss!

Shocked and so sad to hear the news. A great loss at such a young age. I knew Mark at work for years and he was a wonderful team player and fantastic tech support. We also enjoyed his homemade cooking a lot during those times. My condolences to his family and loved ones, he will be deeply missed.

I worked with Mark for years -- he was always kind and personable, and essentially held the place together with his dedication and humor. I'm so sorry to hear that he's gone; he was a terrific guy.

Mark was one of the nicest people I ever worked with. I remember spending (probably too much) time in his office at Prime talking about music and comedy. When I left Prime Mark gave me a Yes record on vinyl. I´ll never forget that. It was so thoughtful and extremely cool. My deepest condolences to the family.

I worked with Mark at Prime for years. He was one of the nicest people I´ve ever worked with. I remember spending time in his office talking about music and comedy. When I left Prime Mark gave me a Yes record in vinyl as a going away present. I´ll never forget that- it was so thoughtful and cool. He was truly one of a kind.

During 2020-2021, the office was mostly shut down. It was often HR, IT and I in office, keeping things running behind the scenes. I would often come in and Mark would be in the IT room. He´d always come out and check on me, seeing how I was and how things were going. Especially during that time.
Mark would help me with work problems but had no trouble at all lending a hand when I needed personal tech advice. We were classic colleagues - friendly in-office and going about our own lives after work - but he was always kind, always funny, and always patient. He never treated any question I had as annoying - even when it fell outside his work responsibilities. I hope he knew how much he was appreciated. Everyone should be so lucky as to work with someone like Mark. He will be so incredibly missed.

I was fortunate enough to have worked with Mark for nine years at PRIME Research. I know his resume said he was a Systems Administrator, but the truth is, he was that and much more. No matter what I asked Mark to do he was always the "no problem, I'm on it" kind of guy. My favorite memory of Mark was the time we went to NY to close down the office that was located there. We finished ahead of time which left us about four hours of free time. We decided to take a ferry and go see the Statue of Liberty. I'm glad that I will always have that memory of my special friend.
To Mark's family, I am very sorry for your loss.

Mark was a wonderful, funny, reliable coworker during our Prime days. Just a great guy. I remember him fondly.
To his family, I am so very sorry. No words can suffice, but I wish you peace and strength. Mark will always be held in the hearts of the many people he positively impacted.

Mark was a really close friend of mine for several years. He was always bright, laid back, and always up for anything. He was there for me through some difficult times and I treasure those memories. I will always remember him for being funny and kind.

My goofy brother in law, Mark is the person to have reintroduced me to my husband, his brother Paul. Mark, Paul and I had all worked at the Dearborn Recreation and Performing Arts Center (the Civic Center) and were good friends for those years. After moving on from the Civic Center, I had lost touch with Paul but continued to have a friendship with Mark over the the few years. One day in spring 2009, Mark had called me and asked if I would be able to stop by and give him a haircut because he had a job interview coming up. When I arrived for Mark's haircut, his brother Paul who Mark was living with at the time, came downstairs to say hi.... As they say, the rest is history. I will forever be grateful Mark decided to call me for his haircut that day, instead of visiting his local barber shop. I will forever miss my friend and brother Mark Allen.
