Brenda and family,

My deepest sympathy and prayers go to each of you in this difficult time of grief and pain. I thought the world Mark and will always have the highest level of respect and appreciation for him. Working with Mark was such a joy and pleasure. He was one of the most positive people and gifted employees I had the privilege to work with. He was a mechanical genius, but more importantly, he loved taking care of his drivers and students. He was a very dedicated and loyal employee of Winters ISD. Winters lost a good man and Heaven gained an angel.
