Mark,
Another year has gone by and it still feels like you left us yesterday. I wish I could say it has gotten easier but we all know it hasn't. I miss you now more than ever. I can't wait until I can see you again. All of the kids are home with you now and I can't wait until I can be too.
Love you forever and always,
Fluffy Bunny

This last year has been the hardest of my life without you here. I can't even begin to tell you the emptiness I feel without you. Every time I seen a Jeep that looks like yours I make sure to say, "Hi Babe". Makes me smile just a little thinking that you are sending me a message that you are ok. I love and miss you more than words will ever explain. Until we meet again, may you have the peace and love you deserve.
I will love you forever and always,
Fluffy Bunny

Mark , my heart breaks as I hear this news. Home Depot is where we met.
You always be remembered. We made a music video it's on you tube called Saftey Rocks Home Depot 0423. I will miss you.
Love you Allison

I can't believe you are gone. It absolutely has crushed my world. It still hasn't registered that our phone call the day you passed, was our last. I'm going to miss your "morning" messages and all of our talks. I know Jesse James and Bonnie are right there with you. I will forever love you. Can't wait until I see you again.
Love Forever and Always,
Fluffy Bunny
