So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at Revelation 21:3,4 With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away".

Lou and Children:

Fr Mark told me today of Mark's passing. Please accept my condolences and assurances of prayer for Mark and for you. This afternoon I offered Mass for Mark's eternal rest at the University of the Ozarks in Clarksville.

I have many wonderful memories of Mark and you. He was always helpful to me especially when I attempted to play the role of a plumber when trying to repair things in the Athletic Department.

May God in his infinite mercy and goodness admit Mark to the joys of the kingdom prepared for those who love the Lord!! May he rest in peace. Amen.

Lou and family, Robert and I are so sorry to hear of Mark's passing. We don't always understand Why? but we have to keep the faith to someday knowing Why? It certainly isn't easy. I pray God's blessing on each of you. May He soothe you all during this time of extreme sorrow.
