I knew Mark for over 15 years. He was an unusual man, but once he decided he could trust you, you had a friend for life. I loved to watch him working in the yard and growing flowers. He loved his yard, and loved showing me what he was doing. I will miss him very much.
To the Christopher family, you are in my prayers.
Mark was a great friend in school.
Sorry to here about your loss. My sympathy goes with Florence and her family.
