My sincere sympathy to all Marks friends and family.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family. I had the great pleasure of working with Mark during his time with Embassy Lawn & Landscaping. Mark was an amazing employee but more than that a great person. We will forever be grateful for his contributions and blessed for having him in our lives.
So sorry to hear of your loss, my deepest condolences are with his family and friends. Mark was a valued member of the turf industry and just a good person and friend. Mark serviced our turf needs for many years during my time at Sky Sox and Academy Little League. I will truly miss his friendship. Rest in peace dear friend.
I went to Roncalli High School with Mark. i was shocked to see his Obituary in the Pueblo paper the other day. Mark, God Bless your family, Rest in Peace my friend.
A great friend of the La Junta Golf Club. A sad day for us. Condolences to Mark’s family. A true gentleman and a help to all of us in the golf business. It was a honor to have worked with Mark. God bless and we are better people to have know you.
I am so very sorry and saddened by Mark’s passing. I first met Mark when I arrived in the USA from the UK in 1997 and we maintained contact through our profession. Mark never ever failed to encourage and help me for 18 years thereafter. Truly a fine man. We’ll meet again.
Goodbye my friend
I know I\’ll never see you again
But the time together through all the years
Will take away these tears
It\’s O.K. now
