My dear sweet friend Mark
I am truly at a loss for words. How do you say goodbye to a dear friend that has impacted your life as much as you have touched mine. I have been checking my phone everyday since 03Aug2020 waiting for a message or sending a message to you about a new song i heard , or just to catch up. I miss you terribly and cannot imagine a world without your bright smile, humor, kindness and LIGHT.

I am so happy i said yes to taking on this one project 7.5 years ago- it was your first study in programming. I am grateful that i found a friend in you and we shared our life, knowledge, stories, exchanged songs, finished songs the other would start in text.

Agh, i I remember how excited you were when you found your Japanese Maple. You took your eldest Aimee to see it before diving in and buying this huge plant and you planted it on your own. You sent a picture of you and Aimee with it.. so proud. .. I continue to read the Japanese Maple poem you posted on FB written by Clive.

You truly are an amazing father .. you can see it in your girls everyday. They are blessed to have you and the memories will live forever. Sending love to your family and loved ones Rest easy my friend and catch you on the other side of the rainbow. I still have that pot of gold waiting for you from my cruise so many years ago. Love you lots Anita
