Rest in Peace, Pro. I first met Mark at the University of Detroit and was a Co-op with him at the Rome Air Development Center. Mark was a great person, fun loving and a very good basketball player. He left us too soon. We grew apart over the years, but those are still some of my favorite memories.

I am so saddened to see of the passing of Mark. I met him, back when he was a co op, thanks to my roommate in Nursing School. We had so much fun, so many laughs, great adventures. Our own sorority... "ITK". A very special time in my life, I thank you! Rest in peace!!

I was saddened to hear of Mark's passing. We grew up as childhood friends, were college roommates and he was best man at my wedding. I am so sorry. Please know that I´m thinking of the entire family and sending my love and strength. May your many memories give you comfort in this time of grief.

I knew Mark since he was a co-op at Rome Lab and I was a brand new hire. In addition to working together, we bowled, played softball, and golfed in Leagues together over several years. He left us way too soon.
