Mark was a amazing man, off the first time i met him, such a easy person to talk to, gave great advice and knew when people needed help even if he was dealing with things him self. I’m not related to mark but damn sure made me feel like family. Going to miss you sending me memes on facebook at 1am. Hope heaven is treating you well, prayers to all family and friends.

Mark and myself we went from third grade to high school together when I had breast cancer mark told me he was praying for me and when he had cancer I keep on praying for him Mark he really fought hard to beat it but sometimes God just don’t want the person to keep suffering with the pain the back and forth to the hospital I do know one thing no matter what when are times is up there nothing we can do because we have done all that was required of us I think you Tammie for sharing the ups and down Mark had been dealing with you really love him and I know he loves you and his kids. He shared that with me in my box during the time I was dealing with breast cancer I will continue to pray for his family the Bible said lean not unto thy own understanding and in all thy way acknowledge me There are many mansion and God took Mark hand and said he has a place for you in my mansion he gave Mark his wings and said farewell my faithful servant your job has been completed
