I remember Mark well from some of our classes at Sehome – witty, kind, sometimes a little intimidating, and incredibly smart. I loved our conversations. So sorry that he left life so early.

Mark was a such great private guy, a loving father to Morgan and a great friend to Jeff. I will miss the breakfasts and bonfire’s we all shared in Ferndale. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. God bless you Mark.
