You have my deepest sympathy...I will miss him so much. We met at Pinnacle Drive Inn frequently or the grocery store...always a smile. I was very sick during his service and could not attend. May God comfort you all.

Larkin, Jimmy and Debbie, Cathy and myself send our deepest condolences for your loss. We had the privilege to know Mark on a personal level and we are better for it. He always had a funny story or joke to tell with that big, bold laugh he had. We had many good conversations and I know he will be missed by many. We will keep you all in our prayers. Praying that you find smiles in the memories you shared and peace and comfort soon. All our love and please let us know if there is anything we can do,
