So very sorry about losing Uncle Mark. I know he was very ill and the thought of his suffering was hard. He is at peace now. He will be missed.

Joan and Family-I was very sad to see Mark has passed away but he has now received his wings! I have fond memories of his sense of humor,his love for going to the dances,his concern for others and most importantly the love he had for you and your families. We are thinking of you all at this sad time. Carolyn,Marcus and Taylor Hansen
