Where do I begin? I could write a book about our escapades together thru life. Especially early on and then at WVU. Although we may have not spent time as life became busier and didn´t see each other as much, Mark was always in my thoughts and we´d chat every now and then about trout fishing or WVU football. And when time permitted we´d share a cold beer at one of the local taverns. My memory bank is full of all the great times we spent together. He will be sadly missed. RIP cousin.
