Rest in peace Mark. You really were a inspiration for the relationship with you and your son David. Never have I seen a son who adored his father more than David did you. I know you both are together in a better place and I'll qee you guys when it's my time. I'll keep you both in my thoughts and prayers. RIP Love, Caroline & Forrest

Hey dad,. It's me Your son David. I just want to let you know things are going well for me. I'm no longer homeless, I got housing in a nearby city. Thank you for letting me see you one last time after you passed. That was the most amazing experience. I am trying my best to be more like you and less like the old me. I know we weren't on the best of terms when you passed but thank you for your love and forgiveness. I'm sorry I wasn't there at your funeral it was logistically impossible, but one of these days I'm going to a wake in your honor exactly how you wanted it. I will always adhere to the lessons you taught me and strive to continue doing good. I'll guess that's it for now. I'll see you on the other side, but until then just know not a day goes by that I don't miss your smile your voice and kindness. Everyone was saddened about your death. You touched many lives and were a very well loved and respected man. If you can read this, try to meet me again if possible through the means you already know. I love you dad. -your son, David.
