Far and away, the best contractor I ever worked with in over 50 years of my career.

Mark was one of the finest contractors I've ever worked with. His attention to detail was second to none. He pulled off some very difficult work with unbelievable ease and confidence. What a sin to have passed at such a young age! Hopefully some of that talent will have rubbed off on his boys; in which case their future is assured. Mark rest in peace.

"Very talented guy, concerned with attaining the highest quality in his work and always with a great sense of humor. Way too young for him to go. He accomplished anything he tried." Robert Crevelon
