  • Firstly, my condolences to Deb and family, actually to anyone that knew Mark. He is a great loss to all of us. We go back many years, to elementary school. I have lots of memories that are surfacing now, things that I hadn't thought about for years. The New Years Eve's we spent playing Rummoli. The Mexican vacation, looking for the "Big Pyramid." The family trips to visit you guys in the "Fort." Our trip to the mountains with the babies and the trailer full of diapers. So many things..... By the way Deb, it WAS me that suggested those tuxes at your wedding :-) I could ramble on for pages but I'm ending this with a question for Mark. Is there Nascar in heaven? I miss you buddy, rest in peace. - Posted by: Lorry Falvo (Friend) on: Aug 10, 2012

Mark was well respected for his extensive Customs knowledge and experience and was a "go to guy" when you needed help with a technical question.
