O know this is very late to be.commenting but I felt the need to express my condolences to the Sylvia family and also speak about who Mark was to me. Mark. I met Mark in the late '90s through mutual friends. Hewas such a sweet and kind man, always welcoming me into his home and visiting me in mine. He would always introduce me saying " This is Beth. She's one of the good girls", whatever that meant, it sounded nice and complimentary. Mark was a very friendly, humble and fun guy. He always had a house full of friends stopping by to hang out, watch movies or just socialize. The day before Mark passed, I stopped by to visit him because I was going to be moving to MI soon and I wanted to say my goodbyes. I was absolutely in disbelief when a friend called me the next day to say Mark had passed. I am so grateful that I got to see him and say goodbye, not knowing it was the final goodbye.. I miss him a lot and will always remember him for his kindness.

Hi Millie, We are so sorry to hear to hear the very sad news of Mark's passing. We are thinking of you and hope you are well. We want you to be comforted by knowing you were a great Mom to Mark. You were there for him from his first day of life to his last. Through the years Mark has been nothing but kind and respectful to us, as a child and as an adult. That is how we will remember him. We hope you will find comfort and peace in your memories of happy times with Mark . (Like when we used to pile all the kids into your gigantic baby carriage and wheel them to Millicent Library for story time. Then it was on to the drug store for a "cabinet", now-a-days known as a frappe.) I could go on and on. Those were the good old days! We are with you in thought and want you to know we care.
