Dear Family: I am so sorry to hear of Mark’s passing; it has been many years since we last met, but I remember him as a fine and jovial young guy, just like my classmate, his older brother, Dave. Some of us go on to be with the Lord too soon, but he is just paving the way for his other family members and friends, so that we can all be together again in eternity.

Janet & Family,
I can’t believe Mark is gone. We went to St. Mary’s and Seton Central together. Unfortunately, I haven’t seen him since we graduated from high school. I always hoped to see him at one of the class reunions. He was a good friend in school and I can remember a lot of good times in school and on the golf course. I know he will be missed.
Janet-
No words can adequately express my sorrow in your loss of Mark. I will always remember his kind spirit and sincerity in caring for patients. It was truly an honor to have worked with such a great man. Praying you will find peace in the days ahead.
