We are so so sorry for your loss, Kyle. Your father was a good man and was a genuine nice person. Mark Always had a big heart. Loved having conversations with him when I would see him. Me and my family are in your prayers. He is so proud of the man you are today Kyle and he loved you so much. If you ever need to talk you can always call me.

Mark was this big teddy bear of a man. Gruff at first glance, but everyone quickly realized he's one of the most caring, hilarious, positive people you'll get the pleasure to meet. Mark made work a joy and I'll miss his creativity, jokes, and friendship. To Kyle and the Jenkins family, know that he loved you deeply and always spoke fondly of his family time. Until we all meet again, we'll carry his spirit with us.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss, Kyle. Nick always had good things to say about your dad and respected him greatly. I have been keeping up with his battle through Nick. If you need anything, even if it's just a sounding board, please ask, I absolutely mean that. I miss seeing all you boys around the house.

So blessed to have had the privilege to work with Mark in the last few years. His smile, jokes, stories, and positive attitude was infectious to our team. Mark's FB posts on Norway had us both longing to visit such a place of beauty. Mark's battle of cancer was 150% and gave him time he wanted so badly while Kyle was in college. Mark -- you will be missed, yet forever remembered! To Kyle, your dad talked about you with such pride. You mean the world to him and his love for you is endless. To the family, may the memories of times with Mark give you the forever gift of his strength, humor and love.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Mark was a wonderful, kind, and thoughtful man. He came to work every day with a smile. I was inspired by his attitude and determination. All of us, in his hallway at Gore, will miss him dearly! Rest in peace Mark.

My condolences to the family.
So many young lives taken far too soon, it boggles the mind. That is until the lasting impact they left behind is suddenly realized. A life does not have to be long to affect many.
