in honor of Mark.

I find myself coming back to this page a lot. I still have voicemails of you and Debbi singing happy birthday to Kaydence and or I on my birthday. To my favorite uncle, I still cannot believe that you’ve passed. It’s been a rollercoaster of emotions and I don’t have the time much to go through the grieving part because I’m always busy with Kaydence. I have always cherished you so much. I love you, miss you and my heart aches thinking about your passing. You’re the person that everyone should be. Just a fun loving uncle to me, but such a sweet and So so funny. You and Debbi, a team of funny!! Gosh I miss your laugh, silliness, and love.

I’ll miss you forever, I love you, and I know you’re looking down on your family members. Keeping us all on the right path. But damn it’s still so hard to believe your in heaven. I promise once I’m able to I’ll get out to see you. I’m going to send Debbi some acorns soon for her to put out for you. Kaydence and I collected a bunch of them. Probably more than the squirrels did- honestly.

I love you. ❤️

I came to know Mark first across our shared cul-da-sac and then—gratefully—around our shared table. On Sunday evenings, I’d meal‑prep for my family and carry over a plate of each dish for Mark and Debbie to try. What began as a neighborly gesture became our weekly tradition: taste‑testing, swapping stories, and finding time to laugh at the end of a long week. Mark met every bite with curiosity and warmth, and somehow those small moments felt like the heart of our neighborhood.
That spirit shined brightest at our annual Halloween party. Debbie and Mark were the life of the celebration—showing up in spirited costumes, greeting newcomers like old friends, and making sure everyone felt included. Their laughter lifted the room; their kindness anchored it.
Mark had a way of turning routines into rituals and gatherings into memories. His generosity, humor, and steady presence touched all of us who were lucky to call him neighbor and friend. Jamie and I will miss him—deeply and daily—and remember him in every shared Sunday dish and every October evening when the pumpkins glow.

I remember Mark coming to school to help Debbi do anything and everything that needed doing, always with joy and a smile on his face. When I fortuitously visited him in the hospital in October, he had the same smile and joy, even optimism, in spite of likely knowing he was nearing the end of his life. Thank you for giving Debbi so much happiness, and wonderful memories to hold onto until you two undoubtedly meet again!
