My family and I were sad to hear of the passing of Mark. It seems like yesterday, we were all kids playing and laughing at Kealing Field. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of sorrow. May your memories bring you comfort, and the peace of God be with you to comfort you as only He can.
