In addition to a tear when thinking of you, I can also feel a smile. If I was going to be around Mark, there was a very high probability that it would be a fun day!!! Still miss you.

Park and Family,
I am truly saddened to hear of Mark's passing. Heaven is no doubt a livelier place with him there. I will always be in his debt for his having tried to save my brother Bill's life. May God bless you all.

I wanted to add... Mark constantly talked of his family and home. He loved his mother, his father, his children and always talked of wanting to visit with family more. To the Oruch family, please accept my deepest sympathies and condolences for your loss.

I will miss you my friend. I thoroughly enjoyed our time mocking one another. Hotel rooms and duffle bags isn't a way of life for many. However, I always looked forward to landing at that wherever location if you were on the ticket. We made many friends and I truly appreciated you making my stays along the way tolerable. Get some rest "Uncle" Mark, it's been a long ride. BTW... you still owe me a hot fudge sundae from that bet you lost. Peace brother!

I am very saddened to hear about Mark. Although we lost touch for many years I always had fond memories of our friendship and good times at NWC. My heart goes out to his family. I'll always remember Mark.

So sorry to hear about Mark. He meant so much to me. Even though I have not seen him in years I feel an emptiness inside and know I will miss him. Even with the struggles Mark had in life he always had a caring heart and was a good friend.

I love you daddy. From Glendan.
