Very sorry about your loss. Our family and friends mean everything to us and when we lose one of them we also lose a part of ourselves. Through these difficult and painful times may you find comfort in God who is by our side to strengthen and lift our spirit Isaiah 57:15.

So sorry to hear of Mark's passing. We were classmates, soccer teammates, co workers, and bowling friends. I was disappointed when he did not show up for the 35th high school reunion, as I always enjoy catching up with him. His smile and personality were contagious. You couldn't help but like him. He will be missed.
