Dear Longaker family,
I was so sorry to hear of Mark's passing. I believe that, a few times back in the 1960's (!), I babysat for Mark and his siblings. Lyde, I can't imagine the pain of losing a child. Please, know that you are in my heart and prayers. My hope is that you will all be buoyed by happy memories of your time spent with Mark. You have my deepest condolences. Susan Webb Russell
