Mark, How cruel is life to take such an amazing dad from his girls too soon. As they say -only the good die young. You were a good person. You raised two independent young ladies who will go on to do good in the world, In your footsteps, well done! Over the year's I didn't get to see you much, but I do remember you from when we were younger. You were always calm, happy and a head strong person to be around. You had that famous big smile that we both inherited from our grandad. Rest In Peace Mark

All is well Death is nothing at all I have only slipped away into the next room I am I, and you are you. Whatever we were to each other, that we still are. Call me by my old familiar name, Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Put no difference in your tone, Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together Play, smile, think of me and If you want to, pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without effect, Without the trace of a shadow on it. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was. There is unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am waiting for you, For an interval, Somewhere very near, Just around the corner. All is well

Mark, There really are no words to describe how sad I am that you're no longer at the end of a phone. Or how happy and blessed I was to call you a dear friend. Always were and will be one of my most favourite of people. Kind, generous, authentic, happy, genuine and a truly amazing father. I miss you every day. So much time wasted not seeing or speaking to you through the years when life got busy or in the way. You'll forever be in my thoughts. Xx
