Dear Louise and family--
I have such fond memories of my early days in Washington and Mark's genuine warmth and humor stand out in many of them. He was then, and I know continued to be, a fine and honorable gentleman, loved by many. My condolences to you all.

Dear Sullivan Family
I have such a fond memory of sitting with Mark on an idyllic back porch in Eagles Mere, at Tish's birthday fete. We chatted about many things and enjoyed a reverie while lengthening shadows crossed the lawn and distant lake's sparkling waters. Mark's intelligence, wit and grace live on in all of you.

Our minds and hearts are with you.
