May God grant you peace and strength and may all your memories help comfort you during this difficult time and always! Mark was a wonderful Son, Husband, Father and Step Father. I respected Mark because of the role he stepped into many years ago at such a young age. I never felt as though he took my Brother's place, but it comforted me to know that my nephew & niece had a "Father figure". I truly considered him my brother-in-law! Rest in Peace Mark! Pat & Loretta - You were good parents to Mark! I hope your memories will provide you comfort. Cathy -- You are too young to go through this yet again. You are not in this alone...you have alot of family to help you along the way. Stay strong....your children need you now more than ever! Amanda and Mark -- you may not be my niece and nephew by blood but I love you as if you were! I am here for you if you need me! I know you have what it takes to make your Dad proud!!!! Stevie & Lexi - So young and you've had more than your share of suffering. I am always here for you. You have your whole lives ahead of you...there is a whole world out there and it's your's for the taking...make the most of it and ENJOY IT! Life is too short!
