Dear Beth and family, I am so sad to learn today of Mark's death. I loved working with him in ministry at Bethlehem as well as while I was in West View. He had such a kind and joyful spirit. May God give you comfort in this time of sorrow and restore you to peace and joy in the days ahead. My prayers are with you, Pr. Lisa Ubbelohde

Sending hugs and prayers to Mark´s family. We got to know him at the Hillman cancer center. Mark and my mom were being treated for the same thing, MDS. My mom passed away on Nov. 26th from it after a little less than a year of treatments. Mark was a great man. May he rest in peace and be out of pain.
Kind Regards,
Mary (Diane was my Mother)

Dear Beth, Meg, and Carrie,
We are very sorry to hear about Mark. Your family will be in our thoughts and prayers. Kerri and I will always be grateful of how Mark welcomed us at BELC. Not to mention, we will never forget his kindness and patience while working with Dalton during confirmation classes and the annual trip to Lutherlyn.
Sincerely,
Frank and Kerri Bacco
