God Bless you Mark, may you rest in peace with the lord and may he give your family comfort during this difficult time. Thank you Mark for your kind parental advise, you were always so helpful! Thank you for giving the world two wonderful young men, Sammy and Jacob. And most of all, God bless Stephanie, such a kind, strong and supportive fellow firefighter wife.

So sorry for the loss of Mark. We went to grade school together. In the second grade, we were chosen to perform in the Wizard of Oz at another school. Only saw him once as an adult but he is a standout memory from my childhood. Very saddened by this news.
