Kenna,



I'm so sorry that I wasn't able to make it to the Memorial Service. Those of us down here in Vieques are still shocked by Marks death. I am eternally indebted to Mark, and now you, for being the only company to give me a chance straight out of school. I feel that my life was improved by knowing Mark. Mark was a fiercely loyal person, and it was returned by those of us who worked for him. My prayers go out to you and the kids.

Kenna and Family,



Scott and I were so sorry to hear of Mark's passing. The years I worked for him at Advent really made a difference in my life. He gave me opportunites I never would have had elsewhere. And I fondly remember the times Natalie would come and visit with me and do "paperwork" in my office. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Dear Kenna and Family:



I don't know when I have been so touched as today at the Memorial Service for Mark. I am sure he would have approved. Not many people pass through this life and leave such lasting impressions. To watch and listen as grown men describe their long term friendships with Mark was so touching and uplifting. I know the partnership that you and Mark shared and while his passing leaves a void in the lives of your family. You have to find comfort in the fact that Mark touched the lives of so many people both young and old.



You and the children are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Kenna, Justin, Jeffrey, and Natalie



After so many years of running in and out of your house, you have become family to me. It seems so strange not to walk into the door of Advent or your house and not see your dad complaining about a girly movie choice that Natalie and I have made or running over to a hockey game. Your dad was a kind and caring man, and I will miss him.



Please know that I am so sorry that I will not be there for the visitation and memorial, and that I truly wish I could be there. My prayers and thoughts are with you.



Love, Jenni

Kenna, Justin, Jeffery, & Natalie: Our love and prayers are with you. Mark will be missed by so many people. His gentle, caring, and kind voice that always spoke with such a positive force to all the young men from BSA Troop #20...our son William being one of them. William, Vill, and I, loved how comfortable Mark always made us feel (the island way). With Our Deepest Sympathy.

Kenna,



It is with a heavy heart that I write this note to you in this guest book. I am so saddened and so terribly sorry to hear about Mark. Not to have that boyish, mischievous grin of Mark's around is unthinkable.



David and I empathize with what you are experiencing and wish that we were there to do something for you. You and the children are in our prayers.
