We will miss uncle Mark and sweet, sensitive, loving nature. The sadness of our grief will turn to smiles remembering his spicy chili at Christmas Eve, his funny (and naughty) stories about growing up with his siblings and how he always asked about everyone and our families. He loved his family deeply.

Im deeply saddened hearing of Marks passing. He and David were very close friends all through their lives. The stories they shared with me would fill a book, a very funny and exciting book. Mark was a dear friend who was extremely supportive when Dave passed. My true hope is theyre reunited in heaven and once again be reliving there wild escapades. My condolences to the family and especially the grandchildren who he enjoyed with such devotion. Sincerely, Mark will be missed.
