I send my condolences to Mark's family. I have known and worked with Mark since 1990-1999 and have maintained contact and friendship since. We have become great friends. I was very fortunate to call him my friend. He was always able to make me and everyone else around him laugh. He was able to pull off the Beavis and Butthead voices and always had me laughing. I was in complete shock upon finding out about his death. I will truly miss the emails from him and was happy to be able to have known him. To Holly and the rest of the family, God Bless all of you and take care.
