I coached Mark in baseball at Benedictine College. He was a wonderful man, scrappy ball player, great teammate and friend to all. We had contact over the years, and loved his sense of humor, but also, his gratitude. Lynne, Bro Paul and all family, our deepest condolences. Paul also joined us at Benedictine, we had The Brothers Koestner, as Ravens, in Atchison, Kan. RIP, Friend!
