MARK DAHIR, what a man! What an example of true love of God!Thank you for the beautiful fruits of labor of the work of God that you were called to. You have left a hole in our hearts that can only be filled with the Holy Spirit and the fruits of your labor, like the mustard seed, smallest of all seeds, but when it grows , becomes a peaceful place of refuge to all the birds of the sky, your humble awesome work has given new life and love to many that will keep producing great fruits. Dearest Whitney , his heart and love, Know that all are praying for you and are with you in this unimaginable time. Your father once said " everyone should have a sister or a daughter. This little girl is the most beautiful thing in my life and the first time I´ve ever felt true love" . Know that without compassion there would be no love and those surrounding you are Gods love tangible. May God bless you with comfort and peace .

Every once in awhile we are gifted with knowing someone who has a light that shines from within...Mark Dahir had that. At times it was a roaring blaze, but more often it was a gentle flicker offering joy, hope, acceptance and love to all in his path. God had a grand plan for Mark that he faced bravely with humility and grace. And though his time on earth was short, his impact will live on through the thousands of lives he changed along the way. He was a vessel of the Lord inspiring many, and although sad for those left without him, he´s moved on to even more profound work beyond our grasp.

My deepest sympathies to the entire Dahir family. I ran into Mark right before the Christmas holidays last year. He was in such a great place both mentally and spiritually. And, was so proud of his daughter Whitney. He is now at perfect peace in Heaven.

Mark was always in a good mood and uplifting whenever we would see each other out and about or just at the gym. He would always ask how I was and then went straight to Whitney and the family talk. We shared many good times, car rides, texts, dinners, meetings together, workouts, etc. He will be greatly missed and never forgotten. Love ya brotha.
