Mark,
Over thirty years have passed since we first met. Throughout each new phase of our , teen years, graduation, marriage, ect., you've proven over and over again to be a generous, kind, and loyal friend. It is incredibly hard to imagine that we will no longer be able to share the ups and downs of life with one another. I know that the memory of you and the times you've spent with my family and me will live on in all of our hearts. We will miss you dearly. Our hearts and prayers are with his daughter and parents in this difficult time as well.

Signora Friedman and Rebecca,
My wife and I recently met Mark and we hit it off immediately. He spoke very highly of both of you. His personality was truly genuine and he had a heart of gold. We had planned to spend time together making tomato sauce, going fishing, and enjoying our Italian traditions. We wish you both peace and comfort during this difficult time and send our deepest condolences.

Mrs. Friedman, I was so sad to hear of Mark's passing. We were the best of friends throughout high school and I will always have fond memories of hanging out with him. I was just looking at his photo the other day. May God bless him in Heaven.
