Mark’s family: I'm very sorry for your loss. I went through a similar situation and I was very helped by the hope that I found in the Bible in John 5:28, which says, "Do not amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out". I am sending you a link with more information on this hope.

To Mark’s Family, my sincerest condolences on his passing. He was truly too young to leave us, but we all have wonderful memories of him, including those of us who knew him from Rider College. What a great guy and a great friend! Poyda B, Jets-Giants Games, parties at the NJ Shore, following the NY Mets and many other special times together! I’ll always remember him.
