Very sorry to hear this news. It was a privilege to spend time with Mark in my ceramics classes at St. Louis Community College, such a talented artist and good person.
One of the sweetest, most gentle souls that ever lived. I am so heartbroken, but glad to know the last few months were happy ones for you. You changed the people who were in your life for the better…I will miss you, Mark.
