I was always in awe of Mark's brilliance, creativity, and kindness. He had a way with music and words, and saw challenges as possibilities.
I was just thinking of Mark and his failed beekeeping attempt this evening when I was watching a TV show with a beekeeper in it. I knew Mark was recently in the end stages of cancer--he'd contacted me as his former minister--but I hadn't known he had passed. I'm so deeply sorry, Emily and Joe. I remember Mark's gentle kindness and his creativity. Sending you love as you grieve.
Love you forever dearest. My heart aches. You hit the ground running and amazed me - that never stopped -no words can truly show the character ,amazing broad talents ‘underwritten’ and hidden demanded with love. There never is a day without you in my thoughts and yearning to be with you again. Emily, Joe Andrea my sincere condolences peace mom
