I am so sad to hear about Mark, he has always had a special place in my heart. It has been many years since I have seen him but whenever I thought of him it always put a smile on my face. Mark was my escort to Homecoming,  my senior year of High School. He still means so much to me and I am so sorry for your loss, he will always be missed. I will never forget him. My prayers are with you.

I worked with Mark at the blood bank in Gainesville and we were good friends outside of work also. Some of my favorite memories of Mark are him going with me to buy my first new car - tirelessly helping me try to train my untrainable dog - and spending countless days at the beach doing nothing - in between working lots of long days and nights together. Although we lost touch when I left FL, I've never forgotten his smile and his laugh, which were always present. I wish I could be there to pay my respects. Please accept my deepest condolences.

Mark was a great guy...sharp witted and fun to be around.  We met in 6th grade and had several classes together and if my memory is right we were in the trumpet section together in band both at Ft. Clarke and at Buchholz.  He will be missed.  I was very sorry to hear the news and my thoughts and prayers are with his family.
