I have wonderful memories of Mark at Friends for Life in Houston and sometimes also at the Petsmart shelter. He always had a grin and seemed so upbeat and cheerful despite the challenges he dealt with. I saw him go through the process of adopting his beloved "Old Man" Toby, then enticing Macie to come inside the house, and next taking in fat Pepe after another friend died and helping him become healthier. He told such funny stories about each cat and they all had distinct personalities and ways of talking to him. (I'm not forgetting beautiful Cinnamon either.) He was there on the bench in the lobby on the morning when I brought in my tiny kitten Hugo who was brought into Petsmart in a box with two siblings who died in the night. So sad but Hugo was all bright-eyed and Mark was very taken with him and kept up commenting on him on Facebook. We both thought Hugo was like a baby version of handsome Toby. Mark often made satiric comments on Facebook about political issues and was always indignant and confrontational when people abused handicapped parking spaces. Good for him! I am so sad for his furbabies but relieved to know they are being cared for. He loved them and all animals so much and was passionate about their fair treatment. We will miss him. RIP Mark.

I met Mark three years ago at Friends for Life's 19th Street location. We instantly became friends and I looked forward to our discussions so much. Not only is Mark super intelligent, but his empathy, compassion and kindness became so evident in such a short matter of time. Mark is a CLASS ACT. I never heard Mark speak a disparaging word about anyone and he is so modest, calm and patient. Obviously, he's intelligent and must have been an asset to any employer who was fortunate enough to have him on their team. Mark's spirit will continue and I know it will live within me. Bless him and his friends and kitties. xo
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

Aunt Nette, Mr. George, Randy, Donna and Doug, I am so sorry to hear of Mark's passing. He was such a nice guy. While his passing is bittersweet, it is such a blessing knowing that we will see Mark again one day in Heaven. And what a blessing that he is no longer in pain and running and jumping in Heaven. I am sure he has plenty of cats to love on and take care of in Heaven. May God comfort you at this time and know my thoughts and prays are with all of you.

I met Mark through Facebook via mutual animal lovers/rescuers/advocates/activists. I chatted with him often online about animal issues and his personal obstacles. I have found him to be one of the most compassionate, caring, selfless and humble persons I have ever known. He had many hardships in life but never dwelled on his situation, to the contrary always looked on the bright side and made the best of whatever he was dealt with. I was shocked at his passing and saddened more than anyone could imagine being that we had never met face to face. Just shows how much of an impression he made on me. I will miss you immensely Mark and hope you are looking down and know how much you were loved from friends all over the world.
