My friend Mark and I were High School friends. I remember his easy smile, sense of humor, wit and confidence. He was a definite influence on my life and all others that his life touched. On behalf of all of his classmates of the class of "63" and all others who knew him, we miss your light and presence every day. Your sacrifice and heroism can never be forgotten. All of us remember you here today and grieve your loss to this world always. Your time here was short but packed with great memories for each of us.
