Mark Rivera Obituary

Mark Anthony Rivera was born on Feb. 14, 1974… Valentines Day… A special day for me and always will be. What could be more wonderful on such a day? Love………
That is what I felt the moment I held my son in my arms. I knew he was special.

I watched him grow into a wonderful young man. He graduated both grammar and high school with honors. He went on to Lewis University to pursue a degree in drafting. Received several awards and his works were displayed at the Museum of Science and Industry.

He went on to become manager for Walgreens, and Dollar Tree. Was loved by all of his customers and co-workers. Mark was a dedicated, responsible, hard working individual and never missed a day of work. While going thru his belongings, I found a letter to my son written by one of his customers while he was working for Walgreens. The letter was written to the corporate office stating how helpful and kind Mark was and that Walgreens needed to have more employees like him. I thought to myself, he could have gone on and on and bragged about this, but instead said nothing and just put this letter away. I know he would have said to himself, “I was just doing my job”. He felt everyone needed to be treated with respect, kindness and dignity.

Mark was a gifted and talented artist, (how he loved to draw comic book characters). His interests were taking him in a new direction, comic book illustration and photography. His life was filled with so much promise and possibility. He was also a music lover, collector of comics, cars and was a huge Al Pacino fan. He loved to collect stars autographs and pictures and documented all.

He was kind and gentle and went above and beyond for everyone he met. He was polite and generous and touched everyone’s life. He was loved by his family and friends and had such a tremendous gift for making people laugh and making them feel better about what was going on in their lives. He always had a kind word, a reassuring touch and a gentle smile for everyone he encountered.

Mark, you and I had a few tough years, and without your strength, your kindness, your gentleness and above all your LOVE and great big hugs I would not have made it thru. You were my life, my joy, my rock, my strength and my friend. I will miss your smiles as they illuminated your face and touched my heart, I will miss your laughter which resounded thru the whole house. I will always Love you. I am, and always will be proud to be your Mom. I will treasure our memories together, and I will always carry you in my heart forever. I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU SO MUCH.

Mom

Joan:
Take comfort in knowing that your son is not alone and that I know Sean and Mark have become fast friends.

To all Marks family and friends.To all my family and friends, I thank all of you for your kindness, your support, your kind words, your encouragement, your cards, your e-mails, and your phone calls. Please keep Mark in your thoughts, your prayers and in your hearts

Sincerely:
Marks Mom

HEY CUZ...JUST GIVING YOU A SHOUT OUT. I MISS YOU, I KNOW YOU KNOW THAT CAUSE WHEN I THINK OF YOU I CAN FEEL YOU PRESENCE. I WILL NEVER FORGET YOU. AUNTIE LU, YOU STILL HOLD FIRST PLACE IN MY FAVORATE OF AUNTS. I AM HERE FOR YOU ALWAYS. LOVE YOU FOREVER...OXOX

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Que Paso Senor,

I was extremly happy when after 18 years we finally get a chance to speak again. I was upset when I could not make it to the reunion. I remember all the good times we shared when I lived off of Augusta and Western. Remember the Purple Palace! I still dont forget the time I got hit riding your bike and we tried telling your parents and my parents that it was you that was on the bike. Yah right! Trouble, trouble. I know your in a better place and I hop we remember each other when I come to meet you in the Big house.

Happy Birthday Mark !!!!!!!!

Riv,
Thinking of you on Valentine's Day and wishing you a Happy Birthday too.

"RIV",hey bro, well as you know its going to be 2007 soon ,and lots of memories shared between the both of us that will never be forgotten.i would like to thank you for the birthay present that was given to me before our departure from one another,and yes i do know that it was from you,so thank you for the wonderful gift with lots of love,and good lookn out.your always there for me and always will be....love ya always "STOF"

My Dearest Son.
Merry Christmas.
I love You and Miss You so much.

Mark and I shared this together at Christmas time and I would like to share this with all of our loving family and friends.

This is OUR Holiday wish for you:

May you find serenity and tranquility in a world you may not always understand. May the pain you have known and the conflict you have experienced give you the strength to walk through life facing each new situation with courage and optimism. Always know that there are those whose love and understanding will always be there, even when you feel most alone. May you discover enough goodness in others to believe in a world of peace. May a kind word, a reassuring touch, and a warm smile be yours every day of your life, and may you give these gifts as well as receive them. Remember the sunshine when the storm seems unending. Teach love to those who know hate, and let that love embrace you as you go into the world. May the teachings of those you admire become part of you, so that you may call upon them. Remember, those whose lives you have touched and who have touched yours are always a part of you, even if the encounters were less than you would have wished. It is the content of the encounter that is more important than its form; May you not become too concerned with material matters, but instead place immeasurable value on the goodness in your heart. Find time in each day to see beauty and love in the world around you. Realize that each person has limitless abilities, but each of us is different in our own way. What you may feel you lack in one regard may be more than compensated for in another. What you feel you lack in the present may become one of your strengths in the future. May you see your future as one filled with promise and possibility. Learn to view everything as a worthwhile experience, May you find inner strength to determine your own worth by yourself, and not be dependent on another’s judgment of your accomplishments. May you always feel loved.

Thank You all for sharing in Marks Life

Tomorrow is Thankgiving, my thoughts will be with you. It will be hard for me to.

Mom

Mark, I am so sorry to hear that you are no longer with us. I am so greatful to God for all the great memories that we shared during grammer school. To believe that we were friends from Kindergarten through eighth grade. I am so happy we got to see each other last year and reminisce about the good old days. You were one of my best friends. May God Bless you always. Love

Joe

My Dearest Son:
3 months ago today, I lost the most PRECIOUS,and LOVING,person in my life.You, my Son.
I miss and love you so much. It feels like forever since you've been gone. Although I talk to you all the time, its just not the same.I know you're here beside me and you're watching over me. I have so much I need to talk to you about and so much I need to ask you. You made things that were difficult not to be so hard and difficult after we talked, cried and hugged. YOU, Mark, were my rock, my Joy, and my Happiness. Please continue to watch over me, and to give me your strength, Your Love and your guidance.
You are and always will be my HEART!!!
I Love and Miss you more than you will ever know.
Mom

Hey Riv,

It's hard to believe that it has been 2 months already. I miss talking to you. I always knew that talking to you would include laughter at some point, no matter what kind of day I was having. I can't thank you enough for helping me get through when grandpa was sick last fall and then when he passed away this spring. Thanks for being there those nights when I needed someone to talk to and make me smile.

I missed sharing my hot air balloon adventure and pictures with you. That day was definately a dream come true and worth the wait and rescheduling. You told me that I'd have my head in the clouds and be floating for some time after that and you were right.

I wish you were here to hear my California stories and see my pics, especially the ones of the big fish that I caught. However, I think you may have seen and see some of what I miss sharing from a much better view.

Just wanted you to know I've been thinking about you. When you see my mom and grandpa, please give them a hug from me and tell them that I miss and love them. Ask them to give you a hug too, because the same is true for you.

Hey RIV,

Just wanted to say hi and that I miss u a lot. I been wokring at deals in the morning. That is so hard to get up by 4 in the morning. Just wanted to say that im thinking of u and that I talk and think about u when im working. Everytime I talk about u I get really sad and dont want to do anything. I miss u so much and everyone and deals does too. U were family to us and me. Ur mom and I are going out to eat sometime and im going to take where u and I ate before. U Mark gave me so many memories that I will never forget. I can't stop thinking about u. I hope u are doing ok up there and u are watching down on everyone. I love u Mark and I'll see u soon.

Luba,

Your still in my thought's - thinking of you- what you must be feeling. It is very hard to deal with a loss of a loving son.

Joan

Hey Marky Mark,

It's me. Just wanted to say hi and that I miss u a lot. Everytime I look at ur picture or my tattoo I think of all the good times we spent. Today I woke up and I talked to myself out loud about u. Of all the good times we had and I remember all the places we went too. I love and miss ur laugh. U always made me happy when I was down. U were such a sweet and nice guy. U were my buddy. Also, just wanted to let u know that Im working at deals again. I told u I was coming back to work with u. I guess u did not beleive me. I miss u acting weird in the car when u did not have ur cd player working in ur car. I love when u were acting like a goofball. I hope god has u close to his heart as much as I do. U will always be with me no matter what happens in my life. I love u and miss u a lot. U were my working buddy and my friend. No one will ever take that away from me. Love ya man..

Big Joe

My Dearest Son:

As I sit here in the stillness and silence, my only wish in this world, right now,is to have you back here with me. I wish that I could know, someway, somehow, that you're doing O.K. that you're smiling, that you're not in any pain, that you're happy.I know that God is taking care of you and holding you close to his heart, but as your Mom, I need to know this.I just need to know. My heart is filled with so much pain and its unbearable. I miss and Love you so much. I still can't believe that you're not here with me. We still had so much to do together, you still had so many things that you wanted to do on your own. My heart is broken and it will stay that way forever. I think of you all the time, whether its at work, or just something I see or hear that reminds me of you. I miss your gentleness, kindness and sweetness. You were everything that a Mom could ever hope for and more. I miss our talks and your hugs and laughter. Sometimes I would wake up in the middle of the night to hear you laughing at some comedy show you were watching and it would make me smile and I would just shake my head. You had a great sense of humour, something I'll always miss. You were the only one who could ever make me laugh. I miss laughing with you.

I love you so Much

Mom

To Mark,

It's me again. Just wanted to say hello and i miss hanging with u. It's been nuts without u. I usually go out with u every week to hang out go just go for a ride. Well I just had my graduation party and I thought of u a lot. U were such a nice guy and a great boss. Like Josh said before when we worked with u it was an easy day. We had such a blast working with u. Everyday I go in deals it brings up so many memories. U will never be forgotten. I have been going to places where we went so I can think about u. I went to the 711 where we got our 64oz slurrpy. That was so good. I rememeber everything we did. Josh and I visted ur mom and it was a nice vist. We talked and talked about u. Everyone misses u and loves u so much. Well like josh said before u always gave us advice with our cars. Well Mark my battery died on my car yesterday and i hgad to buy another one today. That sucked... Well just wanted to tell u that im thinking about u and can't wait to see u agian. Thanks for everything u done for me. My mom says hi.. bye

Dearest Son;

I miss you so much. I miss you asking me to watch a movie with you or "come on Mom", lets go for a ride and then we'll get ice cream. Want to go see a movie? Let's go by the park and take a walk in the woods.I miss those things. I miss you singing your oldies in the shower on Saturday morning before you went to work and the smell of your cologne. I miss your smile, and your hugs. I sit in your room and cry and wonder why God has taken you away from me. We shared a bond that will never, ever be broken. I pray every night that God is holding you so tight and close to his heart as I have done many times, and that He is wiping away your tears and healing the pain and sadness that you carried in your heart for so long. We've just been thru so much together and I pray for peace in your heart.

Now more than ever,I need you, my guardian angel, to watch over me. I need your strength and your guidance.

I'll meet you "over there" and we can watch the sunset together.

I love and miss you so much

Mom

Mark was my boss, co-worker, and most of all, my friend. Mark you know that I would not have worked at Deal$ for a year if it wasn't for you, Sharlina,and Gabe. You guys made work a blast and I was always happy when i worked with you because i knew it was going to be an easy day. I miss our talks after a long day of work, where we sat by the parking lot and thought of ways to improve my car. You told me which products to clean my car and you would ALWAYS get mad if my windows werent clean. I miss going to murrays, i miss visiting deals and seeing your crazy self there. I am just so happy to have spent the last day of your life with me and joey. I thank you for waiting an extra hour so that we could eat out for my lunch break. I miss seeing you at fry's and looking for stuff to get for your car. I came to you first, everytime I got something new done to my car, whether it was a new air freshener to my new sub's, you were always the first to see. I just miss visiting you at work on my day off and saying whats up. Last time I visited you, you made me get you a tuna sandwhich at Jimmy Johns, u crazy fella. Me and Joey visited your mom about a week ago, it was nice meeting your mom. It was nice talking about you and smiling and laughing especially with your mom. We talked for hours about how we knew you and what crazy stuff we did and what an awesome fella you are. I am thankful that god introduced me to you because you are an awesome person, and forever be a part of my life.

Hey Mark,

I love u like a bro. I loved working with u. U were my best friend. I had so many great times with u. I miss u everytime I look at my tattoo or ur picture. I miss getting coffee with u. I miss laughing with u but most of the time u were laghing at me. U were such a sweet and nice guy. I can't believe u are still gone tho. U will always be in my heart and where ever I go. Everyone at the dollar store misses u and says hello. Im happy we became really close friends. I learned a lot from u. Just wanted to say thanks for everything u did with me and for me. I love going out to eat with u. That was a blast. Well hope u are reading this and u think of me as well. Love u again. Untill we meet again... U Dumb???(thats what he always says to me)

Big Joe

My dearest Mark:

I smiled yesterday for the first time in a long time. Josh and Joey came by to visit. We talked and talked about you for hours.They both touched my heart with the memories of you they shared with me. You have wonderful friends and I know they love you very much. You are and always will be, to me, an incredible and amazing son.I'm starting to hear and to see, more and more of how many, many lives you've really touched and it fills my heart with such joy. The faces of happiness, when they are sharing their memories is just,

unbelievable, and I know my face lights up when I talk about you also. I'm incredibly lucky and blessed to have a son like you.

I love and miss you so much.

P.S. Ponch misses you terribly.

Love

Mom

Lulu,

It's hard to find the words to comfort at a time like this. Just know that Ben and I are here for you. Anything you need, all you have to do is ask.

Remember me when I'm gone

Not with sadness,

But with joy and love

Remember with fondness all the memories we shared

Let these memories bring you comfort

Remember though I have left my body, I have not left you

Keep me in your heart and let me ease the ache

Let laughter replace the tears

Remember me when I'm gone

And know that I am looking down and smiling,

Remembering you.

Lu,

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you. Mark smiles as he remembers the greatest love he shared with his mom. Hold on to those smiles Lu ... Mark knows you miss him soooo much and he's going to get you through these sad times.

John,



Alex and I are so deeply sorry for your loss. You are a great person and father. Your relationship with and committment to Mark was an inspiration to any parent. Take comfort in knowing that you have many family members, friends and co-workers to comfort you during this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and I am always here for you.



With sympathies,

Deidre and Alex

Luba,



My heart and thought's are with you thru this hard time. Thinking of you and what you must be going thru.

No one has no idea.



Joan

My dearest son:

I still can't believe that you're not here with me. I wait for you to come home from work and expect you to peak in my room and come and sit and talk to me like you used to do, but it doesn't happen. I miss your talks and hugs. I miss you telling me that things will be o.k. I miss your smile. When you really smiled, you could just light up the room and my heart. I loved to see you happy.

It rained really hard today and all I could think of was that these were your tears falling down,that you were so sad. My heart was filled with pain and I cried with you. Be Happy.

You are and always will be the happiness and joy of my life.

I miss and Love you so much !!!

I did not know Mark but I do know his father and if he was 1/2 the man his father is then the world has lost one fabulous man.

My thoughts and prayers are with John always

A great nephew he was,a good son he was,now he's an angel watching over mommy to ease her pain of sorrow. His lost was taken very hard but his rebirth into heaven one day we will all see.Amen

Marky Mark!! I still can't believe that you're gone. I think about you all the time. About when we worked at Walgreens in Bolingbrook!! We had some fun times there!!! :) You were too young to leave us, but God had a different plan for you. I know that you are watching down on everyone that you love and proteting us. I didn't get to tell you that I got married in March. But you know now. Even though we didn't see each other alot over the years, you still were a dear friend to me!! I love you always.

Uncle Juan and Aunt Luba,
I can't even begin to imagine.....I am so sorry for your loss. I was so shocked and heartbroken when I heard the news. I remember Mark to be kind, loving, and gentle..as I know the both of you to be. My heart goes out to you in this trying time, now and in the days to come. Please let me know if there is anything I can do. I am here for you both and love you so very much.

Mark, you will be in my heart, and your mom and dad in my prayers.

i realy dont know what to say..mark and i became friends so long ago and its too hard to let go...we had a friendship that will never be forgotten.there is no other than 'RIV', nor will there ever be.he was a one of kind,son,friend,cousin,uncle,artist

,bowler,best bud and an all around loveable guy that will truly be missed with all our hearts. mark,i love ya bro

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.

My dearest Mark. How I wished we had kept in touch all these years. I remember the fun times we had as kids @ Chopin. My heart truly goes out to your family in this very difficult time. You are in god's loving arms watching over us all now. God bless you and your family always. You will be truly missed and loved

I met "Riv" through work. He didn't only become my friend, but a family friend. He made us smile, just with his own. He also shared his artistic talents with my daughter, and inspired her. Everyone lost something when he left us, but that's what will remain special in our hearts. Our deepest sympathies go out to his family.

Hey Riv,

I couldn't believe what I was reading in that email from your mom. I read it numerous times, thinking there must be some mistake. However, as the days have passed by, it has started to sink in that you are gone. I can't find all the words to say what I'd like, so thank you will have to do. Thanks for your laughter, smiles, friendship, listening, words of advice, and everything else. You'll be missed, but never forgotten. You will live in our hearts forever.



Vicki

Luba,



My heart goes out to you, in the loss of your son. There are no words or anything I can do that can take away the saddness you must be feeling right now. You are in my thought's.



Sincerely,



Joan

Mark, I'm so glad we were able to reconnect for a short time last summer after not having seen each other since grammar school. You were my best friend from 1st grade all the way up to our 8th grade graduation. We had alot of good times and you had the best sense of humor.

I'll miss you, bud.

I'm so deeply sorry for the loss of Riv. He meant alot to so many people. Reading the email that he died seemed like a cruel sick joke, but only when I reread it I realized it wasn't. This has deeply hurt me. If it weren't for Riv, there's no way I'd be drawing as much or as well as I do today, and there's definitely no way I'd be in my art school. He was a great person, great artist, great inspiration, and great teacher. He will always be missed.

Mark… what a special son, nephew, cousin and friend. Your life was too short here but you managed to touch so many hearts with the joy and laugher that you shared with everyone. Never a bad word, always a smile. You will be missed dearly. All your good memories will keep a smile on our face as we remember you and this will keep us smiling until we meet again.

Watch over your Mom ... You were her rock and her reason to love life. Be her angel from above and continue to help her through her rough times.



Thank you for being apart of our lives and making it happy…… cheers until we meet again.

Luba,(Juan and family as well) I can't possibly express the sadness we felt at hearing about your lovely boy (that's what we call our son in private, still at 30+ yrs. lovely boy). God has the answers and we will know them when we all reunite one day. God no doubt left you with numerous memories and dreams shared between you and Mark to last a lifetime...make them count, live them for him in his honor... Call me if you need anything. Love Olga (Al) Godinez, Prairie View, IL

To my dearest son:



You can't IMAGINE how much I miss you. I miss your smile, your laughter,your great big bear hugs. I will always hold you close to my heart and treasure all the special moments and memories we shared together. I Love you So Much

Mom

I was shocked and saddened to hear of the loss of my good friend John's son, Mark. John had spoken to me about Mark recently and I wish I had been able to meet him. I understand he had a wonderful gift of making people laugh. I pray that John and all of Mark's family and friends find strength to get through this sorrowful time.

I will always remember my cousin, from the past, in my memories and in my prayers. I love you.

My prayers are with you and your family. GOD BLESS

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.



Mark was a great guy in high school and after. He always made me laugh in science class.



Love,

Emily Gillespie and Family

marky mark...been thinking alot about you and every memory I have of you makes me laugh because thats just what we did..and for that I say thank you bro, you will be missed but never forgotten..till we meet again bro..love ya

My warmest and deepest condolences, to you John and Luba. Im so sorry for your loss in Marky Mark...I will forever miss his words of encouragements, that helped me in my time of need. May God bless him Forever. He is another shinning star in the sky watching over us. Till we meet again..

From a Father to my Dearest Son:

I will miss you forever and thank God for the the short time he blessed me with your life. Nothing can replace your loss and the heartbreak I have endured but,know that one day we will be together again for eternity. I found this Father's Day card on July 6th 2006 and it was like you were talking to me at the present...you said:

Dad,

Even though you've been going through some rough times and things don't look as good as they should right now, it will get better. I know things will straighten out, no matter what has happened in the past-and what may happen in the future, just remember that you will still be my dad,and I will always love you, Happy Father's Day!



Mark



Thank you so much Son, I Love You Always!

Dad

My Thoughts And Prayers Are With You and Always Will Be.Mark Will Always Live In Our Hearts, Someday We Will Be Reunited With Him Until Then We Must Wait Patiently But Joyfully knowing This Day Will Come And Everthing Will be Perfect In Heaven.

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.

My most sincere thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time, please know that God's strength is perfect in our weakest time...

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help at this time.
