To the Bernadini and Sottile Families,
My sincere sympathy to you and your families for the loss of Mark. There is no greater pain than the loss of a child or sibling. No words can ease the emptiness in your heart, but it does help to have someone by your side to help you ease that pain. May God bless each and every one of you and give you the strength to get through this horrific time in your life. Mark is at peace now and hopefully that will bring you comfort.

Mrs Bernardini and family. I was shocked and saddened to hear about Mark's passing, my mom just said she saw you and spoke about Mark. Our friendship goes back to kindergarten as well as many memories, we were all a very close group for many years. I live out of town so will not be able to make the services but you all are in my thoughts and prayers and Mark will always be in my thoughts and heart. Jill (Hoeffner) Mattern

My sincere Condolences go out to the entire Bernardini family...Markie and I were childhood playmates...the last of the "Go outside and play generation." We rode bikes, swam, played hide and seek and Simon Says...we drove 'Aunt Ruth' crazy sometimes! His cannon balls will live on in my heart forever. RIP, old friend.--Maria Santomauro
