  2. God Bless the Alfrey Family. I met Mark one Christmas at Ruth’s house and I took a liking to him right away. He was a very pleasant person and was very nice to me. Sorry for your loss. The Mallon Family.

  4. To my beloved brother, I do not understand why you had to leave us so soon. We will all miss you so much. I will never forget all the fun times we have had. I know that growing up we didn’t always see eye to eye but as we have all gotten older we have all become so much closer and have gotten to spend more time with each other. I think that we all learn how important family is too us sometimes a little to late. I am glad our family has had that time and lot of that time was at your house. Thank you for everything. I know that sometims we don’t tell each other enough that we love each other but I am glad that I told you that I loved you the last time that I saw you. Love you forever and always. And don’t worry about Sandy and Chauntee and the kids. They will be taken care of. Tell Toby we said hello.

  5. My condolences to mom and dad on the loss of your son Mark. Losing any child is hard to bare and by watching my parents lose a daughter and I a sister I truly understand, Sandy may God bless u and give u comfort in this time of need and to rest of this very large family my heart goes out to all of you as well. A death in the family leaves a void that cannot be filled. No one can ever take the place of this individual in the world. We should not try to comfort the family by saying that ‘it was his time anyway’, or, ‘he was suffering’. These may be words of comfort later. However, there must be time to mourn the fact that things will never be the same. One minute he was here and now he is gone. The human mind must be allowed to sit with this reality. Mourning is a necessary part of the human experience. If it is ignored, a general feeling of sadness may pervade the whole family. Sorry mom and dad I stole some of this from a web page I know not to steal u told us that a long time ago ( if u remember sitting in your rocker mom yelling at all of us about one thing or another and thats how Ill choose to remember Mark with fond memories, I love u all and may god look over u.

  13. I’m still struggling to understand why….just a few short weeks after we lost Dad, we have to lose an amazing uncle. You were always there for me when I needed you…I’m going to miss you laughing at me with my gloves on trying to bait my hook with a worm…and sitting by the bank of the lake with our fishing contest. I’m determined to catch big Moe for you and Dad, and when I do, I’ll even try and take it off the hook without you guys there. We are going to take care of Aunt Sandy and Chauntee for you, I promise. You and Dad just keep looking down on us and giving us strength. I love you so much Uncle Mark! Love, Your Niece
