Earlier today
Two days of the year I always dread..
1. Christmas. From the day you left to Christmas morning felt like one long, stretched out dark day, that was never gonna end. Being a mom now, of course we celebrate but you're always on my mind from the minute I wake up.
2. Your Birthday. Cause why are we not celebrating you..
I know you're always with me. I can feel you in my heart always. Sometimes I even consider what i think, your opinions would be on things. I tell my kids about you and how awesome of a Grandpa you would have been. As of today you have five grandchildren. And let me tell you they are all beautiful. I get sad when I think about them not knowing you.. we try hard to keep you alive! Through all the years you're still just as loved and irreplaceable. I pray that one day in another life we are all together again.
Happy (day late) Birthday Dad.
We miss you still.

Coming up on 16 yrs, I can´t believe it, I still think about you all the time and miss talking to you, I miss the way you could light up a room and always make me laugh til my stomach would hurt. I just bought a new house with land and shop, I miss the fact I can´t share with you my life and where I am at today! I am still an engineer and been with the same company over 15 yrs now. I have 3 beautiful daughters now, Courtney, Brooke, and Whitney. I love you brother and miss you, I never will forget you! Andrew

So for trip number 15 around the sun we talked about some our best memories of you, some of the craziest ones, drank some beer and watched a Metallica live stream of their concert in SF because that's how things have changed since you've left. I'm pretty sure you would've enjoyed it.

Well son. It´s been 15 years on Dec. 17th since you´ve been gone and it still seems like yesterday. So much has been happening. You now have 4 nieces . Your brother has even teased them like you used to tease him as a child. Great laugh´s and memories for sure. You are even a grandpa of two beautiful little girls. Breanna and Corey each have a daughter now. I know you´d be proud of your children Mark. We think about you all the time and are looking forward to seeing you one day.

But there's one upsetting thing....I'm starting to forget your voice and tiny things like that, and it scars me into thinking by the time I have kids, I want rememmber you?! Its a tough subject for me to talk about cause I want my kids to no ALL about you.love and miss you.

We all miss you, and daisy lou. I was just thinking about one anniversary years ago, when i surprised you with a night in the city. Aunt chrissy stayed and watched the kids for us. You thought we were going to a concert. haha. First time ever you were surprised. You always had a way of guessing what i was planning, or naming your gifts before you opened them. it would make me so mad, and you loved doing it. You were so funny, but yet sarcastic. Thats one of the oddball personality traits that made me love you so much. Happy Anniversary Mark. I love you. xoxoxoxo

Dear Mark,
Happy Birthday Mark !! Yesterday was a beautiful day about just you sweetheart. We laughed -and yes we cryed !!
As we sat and remembered you, we couldn't help but talk and think about that black cowboy hat you always wore and loved so much. You even got married in it. Dad has it hanging up in his steelers room and will continue to only wear it on the 17th of Dec. each year. Some day it will be Marky's. That will be a special time for Dad to give it to him. We also thought about the times you made your little brother laugh so hard his stomach used to hurt him. And how you used to tease your sister about her food all the time. She now has a beautiful baby girl named MacKenzie. Your new little neice!! She looks so much like Marky's baby picture. (Mexican) Ha Heh. We laughed, then we cryed.
We also thought about your family , Missy and the kids, and how you were such a wonderful husband and Dad. I know you see them growing and would be so proud of the mother Missy is. She is such a wonderful Daughter-in-Law. They really do love and miss you so much Mark. We pray for them !!
Ya know, and i'm sure you see us down here on earth and know this already, but - it never gets easier, and that's o.k., we just learn to go on without you.
Mark, You will forever be in our thoughts - along with many many other people who you've touched. Can't wait to see all you've done in heaven someday. Love always, Dad and Sandy

Well Mark a year has past since we all lost you. It has taken me acouple of days to think of somethng good to write in here. I have been having some strange things happening to me lately like my stereo in the car going high and low, Truck drivers that look like you as I pass them on the freeway and dreams of you. I am beginning to think I am losing my mind but I know you are really there in spirit. I know you are there to listen to me when I am talking to you. I was just thinking back on all the times we have shared. I remember when you, missy and I went to Colusa Casino and I was kickin butt and you were singing "You got to know when to hold em' Know when to Fold them" as I was counting my chips. I also remember you calling me persistent when I told you had to get out of the bathroom when you were in there way to long and that same night at 5 am watching Rain Man. I will always think of you pretending your Rain Man everytime I see that. There are so many more memories I can think of. I would like to thank you for the friendship we had for the last 10 years. I will keep those memories with me for the rest of my life.
Tony and I did the Relay for Life and walked for you. I was pretty sore the next day but you know it was totally worth it and I know you endured more pain than that. I cant wait to do it again next year and probably every year after that.
Please continue to watch over all of us, Remember we Love you and miss you alot. I know your there when the sunshines, when the wind blows or when the rain pours down. We think of you always, I still cry almost every other day. I cant talk about you without crying. Heck I can't even listen to the radio anymore. I know you were laughing at me last night while I was crying listening to George Strait.
I miss you alot and its hard to believe its been a year already. We will see you again someday. Love you lots Sheri

Mark,
So here it is, one year later. Just like Tracy Lawrence sings - time marches on. Here's what's changed in the last year for me. Kenda & I bought a house, I did alot of laps at the Cancer Walk in Dixon along with an entirely new meaning and sense of purpose. I lost the fishing pole you got me on my way home from the lake - I guess you needed it but all you had to do was ask. I changed my job so I wouldn't have a lousy schedule and the icing on the cake for me so far - Kenda & I got married.
I've gotten visits from you in my dreams too, the most vivid being that of some huge ranch house you had in a beautiful valley. Looking out the back door you could see big majestic mountains and a clear running stream.
Here's my one-more-time list of things I'd like to do with you my friend.
-a morning of Madden tournaments and smack talking
-a nice hot afternoon at the lake with a good barbeque and plenty of ice cold Coors Light.
-another drive to a George Strait concert sittin' front row singing til we're hoarse, trying to shake the man's hand and getting guitar picks.
-see you passed out in the front or back seat like you always did after a concert.
I hurt from time to time and not a day goes by that I don't think about you or see something that makes me think of you and how much I miss our friendship. Nobody could've ever have a better friend than you.
Cowboys like us
Sure do have fun
Racing the wind
Chasing the sun
Take the long way around
Back to square one
Today we're just outlaws
Out on the run
There'll be no regrets
No worries & such
For Cowboys like us.
See you in the front row at George Strait next month Mark.
Jason Manit
December 7, 2007
To My best friend,
I have enjoyed our conversations in my dreams, and thanks for waking me up when I did'nt set my alarm that morning.
Sandie and I went to Las Vegas and saw George Strait. We sat in the third row and also got to shake his hand. We dedicated the concert to you and it was everything we thought it would be. Sandie and I pretty much cried through the whole thing. I dont know why I'm telling you this, because I know with all my heart that you were there with us. The only imperfection to the night was not being able to see you sitting there, singing every single song word for word, while you were strumming the heck out of your accoustical air guitar. I truly came to the realization that you had left this planet when George Strait played "Run", "Road Less Traveled", and of course "Amarillo by Morning". It was a very contradictive feeling when I heard these songs. Why, you ask? Because even though you couldn't be there, I never felt more close to you.
I think about you every day. I am going to think about you every day for the rest of my life. Nothing could be as hard as what you and your family went through a year ago, but I want you to know how hard it is to not have you in my life, bro. I love you, brother. See you in my dreams.

I miss you bro, I miss talking to you and all the things that brothers do. I am married now, you would have loved my wife, Ashley. Man oh man Mark I wish you were still here. I know that someday I will get to see you again, but until then I will continue to live the america dream in my eyes and ,,,,,make my big brother very proud. I love you

Mark, I read the paper last week and discovered someone else who had to endure the same thing you did. It truly breaks my heart to discover another person, his family & friends going (and went) through the same circumstances. It also just reinforced how deep of a wound I still have and that it only takes one little thing to bring everything rushing back whether I want it to or not. You are still very much missed by all of us.
July 9, 2007
Sweet Mark,
I never got the chance to tell you how proud I was of your courage. Or to tell you that I love you. I was always there with you in spirit. Your family loved you very much. We didn't get to see each other often, but you were always in our hearts. We were sad to hear about what has happened to Missy since you have gone, we just got the news. We will keep her and your children in our prayer's and hope that she will stay strong.
I will see you again some day, with open arms and big bear hugs. You are my hero, Mark and I love you very much.

Hey Punky. I went to a wedding yesterday, and there wedding song was ours. It was difficult to listen to, but after a moment of tears, I remembered our day and smiled. I cant believe BJ is getting married. I know if you were here, you'd be his best man. All the kids are in the wedding. They are gonna look so sharp. I know you'll be there in spirit. Time has been helping me heal, but it's still hard to come home to an empty house, and have 3 kids against one parent. It's definitely easier with 2 parents. You not being here anymore is a big adjustment. I know your looking down on us with a smile and I hope i'm making you proud. Ive been struggling with life without you and the changes it has brought. I'm doing the best I can, and I know I will get even better with lifes challenges as time goes by. I love you, miss you, and look forward to the day I see you again.

I just got the news I am so sorry it is too late to tell you in person what an amazing friend you were to me. You were my bestfriend all through highschool.The memories I have I will hold in my heart forever. I have searched for you on classmates for years and thought of you quite often! I remember rockin out with you while all our friends were in to Rap, Drivin in your mustard car from party to party. You were always there for me and quick to tell me what schmucks I dated. You would be proud to see the beautiful family I have now as I am to see yours. I know you will be missed tremendously and I will never forget you Mark!

Mark, I just heard the news the other day and my heart has been heavy ever since. I remember when we were young, wild, free and without a care in the world. Cruising up the the lake and doing everything we knew we shouldn't do. Talking on the phone all hours of the night. Hanging out, partying, listening to music and singing the song. It's hard to believe that your gone. We haven't talked for years but I can still see your crooked smile, hear your gentle voice and laughter and feel your presence in my heart. I'll always remember you. Nicole To Marks family. I am so sorry for you lose. Mark is awesome and was always a wonderful friend.

Well you are probably getting settled in now up there in heaven. Hopefully you are meeting some awesome people. I bet the first of many were Dale Earnhardt, Lane Frost and Chris Ledoux. I bet you guys are throwing some awesome BBQ's. It's been over three months now and I still think of you everyday. There is not a day that goes by I dont think about you great smile. Bradley has been missing you lately. He is really worried about his hamster Herbie. I told him you were taking care of him. So he is happy now knowing you will take good care of Herbie. Well thanks for all the great weather. Tell everyone hello.

Hey just wanted to tell you that we miss you so much and still cant believe your gone. I cant believe its been 2 months. It feels like just yesterday I was having lunch at your house with you. I had a conversation with Marky on friday and he wants to come to heaven to run around with. He said since you feel better up there and your not sick anymore your up there running around. I know you are with us everyday. We think about you everyday. Mark was just telling me yesterday that he thinks about you all the time and its crazy your not around. We missed you for super bowl but I know you were there. You probably had a huge smile on your face with your rosey cheeks laughing at how drunk I was. It just isnt the same with you not here. We miss you alot and cant wait to see you again.

I haven't spoken to Mark in many years. I remember meeting Mark at Will C. Wood Jr. High. First thing we talked about was how much we loved the Steelers. Since then Mark and I had crossed paths many times through mutual friends. I have to say I can remember hanging out like it was yesterday. Mark and I would just find something to laugh about and it never stopped. In speaking to Jason Manit in December, he mentioned Mark was sick. I couldn't believe it. I told Jason to tell Mark hello for me and hang in there. I cannot believe barely a month later, he is gone. I was hoping to see him when I come home to visit. I am so sorry for everyone's loss. Mark was a great man and will truly be missed.
Hope our paths cross again Mark.

Mark,
I never had the pleasure of meeting you, but have heard what a wonderful man you were, and the joy and love you had brought into so many lives. I know that my niece Michelle and your children were so blessed to have had you in their lives.
I pray Michelle and the children are finding peace and joy in knowing you are with our loving Lord, and that all the pain and suffering is gone, and that you are once again healthy and whole. I pray they will smile as I do, knowing you are in a beautiful place with our Lord and the angels, which you are now one. I thank the Lord for wonderful people like you that bring so much to other's lives.
Michelle, I pray you'll always know the Lord's love and perfect peace in your time of loss, and that your children will know it too. May his many blessings always flow in your lives. Always know that one day you'll all be together again in God's glorious presence. I love you all so very much. Please know you are in my heart, thoughts and prayers always.
Love,

It is obvious they loved and cherished you and that you touched their lives in loving, compassionate, caring and even humorous ways!! To you, Missy and children, I say, "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints" Psalms 116:15).! He is Home now! Be comforted in your hearts knowing that you will all one day be together again! Much love and prayers, Auntie Marilyn

Dear McCullough family, Jerry and I are so sorry for your loss. We only knew Mark through Bob and Sandy who spoke of him and his family often. Amber who is Bob and Sandy's niece, and daughter of Jerry Sloan kept us updated on Mark. We had all been praying for him and his family. His loss was felt in our hearts. We will continue to keep his family in our thoughts and most especially our prayers. Our deepest sympathy, Love Jerry and Vicke

You all have showed amazing strength durning this sad period in your lives. We will miss Mark greatly.

Missie and children,
I didn't know Mark very well, but knowing that he loved you and the kids so completely blessed my heart in so many ways. Anyone who would love my niece the way Mark did had to be an angel!! Have a good time with the Lord, Mark, because He has a great sense of humor too!! I will see you again some day in heaven and your little family will be in my prayers daily.
You will be greatly missed.

Missy - Bob and Sandy,
TEARS
They havn't washed away the hurt,
the pain you feel inside,
that feelings just too much for you,
you bowed your head and cried.
Your husbands - sons life,
your husbands - sons love,
will never find it's end,
it's present in his children,
and deep in you my friend.
Don't try to just forget the past,
it's so much a part of you,
remember him to all you know,
and help each other thropugh.
please find some comfort in these words,
I've taken time to say,
and may the burden of your grief,
grow lighter with each day.
A person never loses,
a loved one that must part,
you'll always have him near you,
he lives within your heart.
Your loss is great I understand,
I too have felt this way,
but time will pass the hurt will heal,
just take it day by day.
The lord in all his strength and power,
has also bowed and cried,
seek comfort in the knowledge,
he really hasn't died.
He's passed into another world,
a world that's filled with light,
he's happier now despite the fact,
he's gone from human sight.
You too will someday pass,
theres one thing to look forward to,
there he will be waiting,
to once again meet up with you.
We will see you in Heaven Mark!
With all my love, Aunt Rhonda

Mark, I just wanted to say I will miss you. When I saw the way you loved my niece, you and Marky in the black cowboy hats and the way you loved those kids it always touched my heart. As days pass, and we go on with our lives, you will ALWAYS be in our thoughts. You GOT ER DONE!

Dear Missy & Family
I know I don't know you very well, but I do remember Mark and from the few times that I met him I do remember that he was a really nice and funny guy and are real genuine person. I'm sure you all have so many wonderful memories of Mark and I hope that you will always keep them close to your hearts. My thoughts are with you all.

Mark,
I will always cherish the thousands of memories of all the good times we had. I'll never forget your laughter and the times we spent on the infamous ride, the Zipper. Whether it was at the Dixon Mayfair or Fiesta Days we'd spin that thing as long and as fast as we could. You're a great man and BBQ's, George Strait and beer will never be as good. It's an honor to be able to call you my best friend and brother.
My life's been grand
You know I'd write home and tell 'em
But they wouldn't believe how good my good luck's been
And if it ended today I've been all the way
My life's been grand
Your life has indeed been grand my friend and I can't wait to see you again. Until then keep the Coors Light on ice and the crank the Strait up.
Oh shyeah, I can't forget... Shaaaa kakaaaaaaaa!

Missy - I am sorry that I couldn't be there for you in you time of need but I sent the next best thing your brother and nephew.
Mark - When you get there don't forget to look mum up I know she will want to say hi. The time we had with you was to short but we enjoyed every minute.
You will be greatly missed.
