My sincere condolences to Mark's family... I am so sorry that I couldn't make it to meet you and give them personally. I met Mark at Kammer Plant when I began to work there in 1983. Mark was always gentle, polite, comical, and helpful. He always reminds me of my deceased brother who was a gentle loving man as well. May GOD comfort you and bring peace to your hearts, in the name of JESUS the CHRIST, Amen. I will send a donation to St. Jude's in Mark's memory... another example of his generosity. In prayers, Bonnie Mihlbauer.
