My deepest sympathy to the entire family. So sad to hear of Marks passing. I have many fond memories of Mark in high school. Such a sweet guy. Gone too young.

❣Mark was fun. He was always nice . We had lots of fun going to drive-ins. Tam and I and Sue Tharp. Don and Dave Carroll. Of course we snuck a few in the trunk. We would go bowling. Mark helped detasle corn for a summer. He came with us to Lake Ponderosa to spend a few weekends. Skiing and fishing.My brother and Mark were same grade friends. A bunch of Johnston people would scoop the loop. We had parties everywhere. Johnston was lucky to have Mark in it !! He will be dearly missed. 💕 But he is with Bear his beloved dog.!! 💜

Mark is a big part of my high school memories. Dances, football practices, games, long talks late at night on the telephone, watching TV in the dark and drive in movies. The house in Johnston, Cyndi and mom (Barb). Thank you for being you. You will always hold a special place in my heart.

I was shocked and saddened by the news of Marks passing. He was more than a friend and I was always glad to see him at Buc's games. He will always be in my heart. Sorry for your loss!
