  • Mark came into our lives through our sister Amelia and we learned to love him as we loved her. He was her soulmate and she brought joy and fun into his quiet life ...and they enjoyed a beautiful 15 years together. We miss him already very much as he was a big part of our family at regular gatherings..always wanting his cup of coffee being a tee-totaller...and sharing his historical knowledge out of the blue. His philosophy of life was that "we all live under a setting sun"..and although his has set we will remember him fondly. - Posted by: JOANNE MARILYN SIGURDSON (Sister in Law) on: Dec 20, 2025
