Thanks for all the wonderful "cousin" memories. My many trips to the lake, my visits (or was I sent?) to Iowa and Chicago. Only a year apart in age - we were a great team and made quite a pair. I will never forget you Mark ....

Love always,
Chris

We don't remember days, we remember moments. Keep the good ones close to your heart.

From puffer kites to breakfast club, I'll always love and remember you Uncle Mark.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. He added a breath of fresh air, whenever he entered the room. I will miss that! Brother John Morson
