When Mark hired in GM he came to the area to work where I was his committeeperson. He had this enormous smile and positive attitude. I so looked forward to seeing and talking with him each day. What a loss of such a kind, loving, caring man. He is now one of God's angels and we will all meet again. I am truly blessed to have known him and to call him my friend. God be with you at this time.
