I remember years ago Uncle Mark would always send sketch books and doodle pads because he always said I was so good at drawing. I wish I was as good as he thought! Love and miss you Uncle Mark. Your niece Alaina Osborne

I had the pleasure of being Mark's friend for over 20 years. He was always friendly, loving, and would give you the shirt off his back if you needed. He is missed and loved by many. :(

I have had the pleasure of knowing Mark for the past couple years as he attended my fitness classes. Through the years, we became good friends and I enjoyed getting to know him through his lively stories. He had the greatest sense of humor and I will miss his jokes the most, he always kept the class in the biggest of smiles. He will be so dearly missed by our whole class, and especially, me. Miss you very much, Mark, you made such a positive impact on my life and so many others. Will remember you always. Prayers to your family.
With Love,
Stacy Huston
