My condolences to Mark's family and friends and deepest sympathy on your loss. I worked with Mark for seven years in Somerville. He was a gentle soul with a dry sense of humor and quick wit. He was a calming presence in our community and kind to others. I remember his appreciation of music and enjoyment of singing old songs and new. He will be missed and may he rest in peace.

I was privileged to be Mark’s Pastor at First Baptist Church of Belmont before my retirement. His faithfulness, sweetness, and generosity we’re an inspiration and a blessing. My prayers are with his loving family.

Mark had a gentle and generous spirit, and was a welcome presence at First Baptist Church of Belmont. Blessings and condolences to his family.
