Mark was simply one of a kind and a winner in the hearts and minds of everyone who had the privilege and pleasure of meeting and knowing him. He was not only a good man, but a great one in so many ways. His zest for life, positive attitude, genuine interest and concern for others and his community, his immeasurable and lasting love for his family, will endure. I intend and will make a concerted and more dedicated effort to take a page from his book and continue to "pay it forward" and do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Because that was the essence of Mark - he lived every single day of his life with integrity, honesty, curiosity, adventure and passion. And don't forget his winning smile! He was one of the finest people from one of the best families I know. I know Mark is flying high above watching over and guiding his family with everlasting love. So next time you see a sunrise, think of Mark and remember "Here Comes the Sun" and it's gonna be alright." Mark, you truly will be missed. My deepest sympathy to Elizabeth, Allison, Melanie and Mackenzie.
