I came to know Mark for only a brief time a few years ago but grew very fond of him right away. We hadn't spoken in a while and I was terribly saddened to learn of his death.

To his family and friends, please accept my condolences.

My most prominent memory of Mark is when during Journalism class, he and fellow classmates conducted a blindfolded taste test for sodas. He was was so amused with himself that he (they) went on to organize various makings of mini-movies featuring him (most notably) and his sidekicks. It was "entertaining" to say the least. I'm sure his humor touched many.

I was saddened and shocked when I heard the news of Mark's passing. Merv and Marcia, I have been and will continue to pray for you. As I reflect, there are so many memories I have of Mark. There will always be a special spot in my mind just for him. Michelle was showing our children pictures of our wedding recently and they were asking about Mark and college days, I was hoping to reconnect so they could meet him. He would have made them smile. They would have been enamored by him.he was himself a big kid". Please accept my humblest condolences.
