(2 Corinthians 1:3,4)May God continue to provide you with comfort during this difficult time.

Mark was a very large part of mine and my children's life for a very long time. He always was there to help me with projects around my house and he was like a second father to my children. I can go on for hours after hours about what this man meant to me and my family. Brandi and christy I want you to know if you ever need help with anything you can always count on bro because when I needed something I always could count on your dad! This man's death has really touched my heart in a very big way and I feel right now like I lost a true friend and a brother. You will be missed my friend and may God love and welcome you with open arms because u earned it. Love you my brother!
