Marks place was alway a getaway for me, his daughter sapphire and i were best friends and anytime i would fight with my parents they knew i would be at marks place, even as an adult if i faught with my husband i always went to marks place to get my head straight and calm down.it was imposible to be at there house and be mad everyone that was ever thaere always had a smile on there face that was just the way mark was always cracking jokes. I saw mark as a father and i always felt welcome in there home. Its still so hard to believe that he is gone i love you big guy and ill see ya again some day.

There are many memories that I could share of Mark, but the one that sticks out in my mind is when Mark, Ric, My Mom and I went to Monster Jam in Toronto. I had won 4 tickets from Omni Tv. We smoked my mom practically out of the car. After we got into the skydome My mom ran to two different food stands without me noticing, Mark turned to me pointed it out and while laughing said "I think shes got the munchies". I have never laughed so hard in all my life. We had a great time and even got autographs from the drivers after. Mark teased me that day because I am a Dale Earnhardt fan and he is a Jeff Gordon fan. There was a little demolition derby and there were two cars made up for each of our favorites. Needless to say the #3 car was out in no time and #24 went on to win the demo. Mark didn't let me live that one down for years. It still makes me smile to think about it.
