Mark seemed to love his family very much. I know that his wife Jeannie will miss having him by her side. They shared so much together. I am sure that he is with his beautiful Carly now resting in peace and watching over Jeannie as well as everyone else that he loved and cared about.

My thoughts and prayers are with Mark's family, especially Jeannie. I knew Mark and Matt from Gibson's and remember all the fun we shared. As I twin myself, I can't imagine what Matthew is feeling. I feel blessed to have known you both. Perhaps God needed a referee in Heaven, I'm sure he got one of the best! God Bless You All!

I have known Mark since High School.
We were in a group that ran together from several different schools. Everyone that knew him, knew he was a special person. We are all blessed to have known him. Jeannie, you are a very lucky woman to have had his love. Now, you have two guardian angels looking over you. Matt I cannot imagine what is like to loose a sibling, let alone a twin. My prayers for all of you in this time of sorrow. Tina Baker Poe

My thoughts and prayers are with you all as Mark enters into the kingdom of Heaven. Mark was a wonderful friend to me as we were Foosball partners back in the days with his brother Matthew and we were the team to beat! My tears alone cannot express enough how sorry I am to hear of his passing. He was a wonderful father to Carly and now they are together watching over his wife, my best friend, as she needs their strength during this time. God bless you all.
