Sorry for the loss.
Thoughts of sympathy are being sent to you and your family for your loss. May Almighty God give you the strength that you need (Ps.34:18) with each new day. Mark will be sadly missed.
Aunt Melody. I am so very sorry for your loss. I remember his music I guess the best. While growing up whenever our families got together Mark always played his harmonica. He will be missed so much.Love to you and your family.

Dearest brother Mark, Even though you weren't my brother, I always wished you were because Colleen and I have been the best of friends since NY when she was my boss. We always used to talk about you as we've had such a cool connection all these years, like we were sisters. She stayed with me when I had breast cancer like family when I was in TN & she was in NC. I feel that you are finally pain free, at peace & I can feel your energy around me and especially around her. You will always be with us. I only wish we had gotten to know one another even though I feel like I knew you & I prayed for you. I'll always be there for Colleen and know you will be too. She really needs to know that so send her a sign~ soon. Love you, music man and soar with the angels! Claire
