I've known Mark for almost fifteen years through Cigarweekly...been to his house several times, spent a lot of time at Cigar King. He was always a great friend, always considerate of others and willing to give a friend the shirt off his back if they asked. Mark will be sorely missed by many. Today I visited Cigarking and sat in Mark's usual comfortable seat, fired up a cigar and just remembered the good times we shared. Still tough to imagine Mark gone. My thoughts are with Laurie (whom he spoke of fondly all the time) and the rest of his family
