Mark and his family are some of the best memories I have of growing up in N. Miami. Being close to his late sister, Gail, I was always around their house, enjoying the laughter and closeness. I always thought they were the model family. My own parents were divorcing during this time and the Kozlowski home was a kind of santuary to me. Many an hour were spent shooting the breeze on the front porch talking with Mark. Now he'll never know how thankful I am that he and his family probably saved my life. I shed a tear in solitude for him and his Mom and Dad, Dorothy and Rich. It's just not fair that parents should have to bury their children. Rest in peace, old friend. Have a safe journey, and maybe I'll see you again someday.

Mark was one of the greatest people that I ever met. We talked almost daily for 30 years either on the internet or by phone or in person. I miss our breakfast's that we had 4 to 5 times weekly until we both moved out of West Palm Beach in 2005. You are greatly missed my friend but you are in God's hands now.

Mark was a brother to me. We fought argued disagreed but always held a place in our hearts for each other. He was best man at my wedding. There is an empty spot in my heart for him. Only my strongest prayers for his family. Richard and Dorothy did an excellent job when they gave us Mark: a unique and gentle man.

Mark and I went to Catholic grade school together. We were alterboys and boy scouts together. We were best friends growing up. He was a very kind hearted man and I miss him dearly.
