Love should not be just one day this weekend, love is always and forever, especially when you find a husband who is your Best Friend. This weekend, I reflect on how Blessed I was to have you as my husband but more important as my soul mate. God knows how much I miss you as I try to push forward with you always in my heart <3 Happy Valentine Day in Heaven - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuWoYQt5tkY
Christmas is different this year, no matter how he was feeling he always made it magical. I miss him so much and truly was blessed with such a beautiful husband, friend and more. Merry Christmas in Heaven. I wish heaven had visiting hours.

Happy Anniversary in Heaven. I watched Landsman last night and just closed my eyes to see you there with your I-pad watching video and me asking you are you paying attention to the show. Especially, last night when Demi Moore said it right. She tells the other couples at the table that most people fall out of love once they know their partner well, but a rare few fall even deeper. That was us as time went on our love was deeper. As much we had so many challenges this last year, I became your rock and I really fought hard to save you. I cried so hard last night hearing that knowing, I face today without you the man who was home to me. My security blanket and even as tried as you were the last couple of months, you still protected me and put my blanket on when I fell asleep on the couch with you. Only some will understand this, your love this last year broke me and yet made me whole, for I was so blessed to have someone like you, it was an honor being your wife. Till we see each other again, love you forever.
It has been very difficult to bring myself to write anything, this is such a difficult loss for both me and Inaayah. Just a week before he passed, we facetimed him and I was planning on coming over to hang out with him. He has always done so much for me and would drop anything at any time to talk to me or help me. I wish I didn’t have to write this post and that he was still with us. I’ll always miss calling him a hedgehog with his spiky hair and calling him to tell him the most random things or just to say hi. Inaayah and I were honored to be his nieces and we thank Cathy for bringing such a wonderful man into our lives. Rest in peace Mark, we love you! 🙏🏻😘💜
In Loving Memory
On Sunday, November 2nd, at 12:22 a.m., surrounded by the deepest love and prayer, an incredible man went home to Heaven.
My stepdad took his final breath with my mom holding his hand peacefully, exactly the way he wished to leave this earth. 🤍
He was so much more than “a stepdad.” He was the steady heart of our family a husband, a father, a Papa, and truly our best friend. He entered our lives twenty years ago, in a season of loss and heartbreak, and instantly became the light that carried us through. It was as if God placed him right in the middle of our story and said, “Let him lead you home.”
He loved my mom with the kind of love people spend their whole lives searching for steady, loyal, and full of grace. He loved my husband, Ben, like his own son, and their friendship was one of genuine respect and joy. And then came his granddaughter, Harlow. She became his everything his pride, his joy, and his greatest adventure. Their bond was pure magic.
Our hearts ache deeply, but we find peace in knowing that he is now whole and free. Though we miss him beyond words, we know this isn’t goodbye it’s “see you again.”
We will carry him with us everywhere we go in every laugh, in every new adventure, in every road trip and every plane ride, in every new memory we make. His spirit will live in the way we chase sunsets, tell stories, and hold each other a little tighter. Mark lived life to its fullest, and that’s exactly what we will continue to do in his honor. His spirit will forever guide us to live with purpose, seek adventure, and love with our whole hearts.
🤍🕊️
“When it rains, look for rainbows. When it’s dark, look for stars.”
Even in the hardest moments, his light still shines and his love will always be our rainbow after the storm. 🌈
Mark joined Cathy on a Kaboom Build that we did in Orlando, FL in 2017. I remember thinking that he and Cathy were perfectly made for each other. Both were full of life, always smiling and laughing. They enjoyed that build day so much together. Making a difference for the kids, the community, and just being together.
Cathy, my heart breaks for you and your family. Mark was an amazing man, husband, father, grandfather, and friend. Please know that I'm thinking about you and holding all of you in my heart and my prayers.

Christmas 2023, Mark wore a custom made jacket with the American flag inside. He was showing it off in this picture. When I see these pictures in my camera roll, it makes smile because I can hear his laugh and his voice when I look at them. He was such a cool guy! I could hear his keys jingling when he was heading to my office and I knew whatever he was going to say was going to be interesting because he was so smart and funny. I’m not going to tell myself he’s gone, just that he’s on vacation up in
Heaven. We’ll see you again buddy! You keep watch over Cathy now, no one could have taken better care of you than her.
I’m sure you’re already running the IT department upstairs. We love and miss you.
Your friend, Melissa
I happen to be in Washington DC assisting my daughter with her move when I received a call about Marks passing.
Needless to say I am shocked and saddened. Mark has been a great work friend and I have a lot of good (and funny) memories with Mark.
Within the past year Mark had shared with me some personal things in regard to his health issues and where he was in his life. Mark told me he was willing to accept whatever life brought at this point. He didn’t say this in resignation but there seemed to be a strength and confidence in what he told me.
I envy Mark for what appeared to be his acceptance and bravery for his future.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family and also to the Currie family that he was very committed to in his work life
