I am so sorry for your loss. Mark was a childhood friend of mine. He gave me my first kiss, May 7th 1967! We would walk home from school together, his house before mine, when we said our good bye's that afternoon, he turned and kissed me.I have never forgotten that. He was a very nice young man.
May God be with you always.

I never got a chance to get to know Mark, but as I got to know Ryan, I understand that Mark was certainly a great father. He was very supportive of Ryan and the team. His life is a model for other dads, and will be celebrated in your memories forever. Seek peace in the Lord. Our prayers lift you and your family.

Mark was a superb husband and father who went above and beyond his duties. I loved sitting next to him at either a softball game or basketball game as he proudly watched his children play. He was always proud of them, and did whatever he could to show his support. You will be sadly missed by the Bisson Family and the community you lived in. You have an amazing family. May you rest in peace and watch over them now.
