Like everyone else, I was shocked and saddened when I heard the news. Mark was always so vibrant and passionate about his love of music. You could see it on his face, you could hear it in his playing. I looked forward to seeing Mark every year at the Rock 'n Roll Roots CD parties. This gentle soul will always be a part of what made those events so special. Rock on Mark, and we'll try to do the same. Bob Stroud
