I grew up with Mark in Hazleton, Pennsylvania. We had a great group of friends who spent a lot of our time on MPB playground on Hayes Street, playing sports and spending time in each other’s houses. My condolences go out to Mark and his family. He was a good man.

I only knew Mark because his daughter, Amanda , is my daughter in law. I only can remember him smiling when he was around his family . And his words were captivating when he spoke about anything at the time . Always interesting . But you always saw a look of love and pride when he was near Amanda and her family. It was clearly obvious. He was a proud father . May God bless him and welcome his soul for all eternity .
