Mark was such a great friend to all of us, and some were lucky enough to share, as I was, experiences and memories growing up and into adulthood in Ocean Park.  What great summer fun we all had together, on the beach, in the water, at the Rec Hall, the ice cream shop, the tennis courts and shuffleboard, the Temple church services and movies, and our special Winona Ave. Group. It was so good to visit with Mark and Sally this summer at our 55th Winona Reunion and so sad that it was the last time we would be able to visit.  I am really distraught, as I am sure many of you are, that we will not be able to speak to him again, hear his laugh, enjoy his company.  We do know this, that he was a devoted Christian minister, saved by grace, and with Jesus for eternity, where he awaits us all.
