I'm so sorry to hear of Mark's passing. I lived just down the road from the Mulholland's and went to school with Mark. He was nice to everyone he met and always had a smile on his face. He will be greatly missed. Your all in our prayers.

My heart felt sympathy goes out to the Mulholland family. Mark and I enjoyed our middle and high school years together -- always with a good belly laugh whenever we spoke. It has been too many years between visits and I shall reserve one more funny story for Mark when I meet him on the other side. The special times we spent as friends (Mulholland, Bruce and Johnson) at Big Lake shall be remembered forever.
God Bless
