We were so impressed with Mark and his positive attitude, courage and faith as he faced his disease. So grateful for our fishing trip the end of September where Mark, we believe, caught his last fish. Condolences to Chris and the entire family. We will miss our good friend and neighbor.
I am deeply sorry for the loss of Mark. Too soon. Love and light to you all.
My brother Mark was such a kind person. He came to visit me in Colorado a few years ago. We visited the Garden of the Gods and then he treated me and my sson Jade to lunch. He bought me a new phone so I could text and share photos. He is leaving behind an amazing legacy in his family and friends. I will miss him. and pray for him for the rest of my life. My deepest condolences to his family.
Chris and family, we extend our deepest condolences and pray your family feels the love and support of family, friends and neighbors. We love the Mann family!
My sincere condolences are extended to my Uncle Mark’s family. People like him cannot be replaced. His duty to our country and family are values everyone should strive for. He was one of my favorite people and I think it will take a long time to recover from this loss.
