Don, Gloria, and Family, Please forgive the late condolences, but know they are very sincere. we did not know Mark, but perhaps through things with Dawn and Troy; we may have met him at one time or another. Our hearts break for all of you, these are not easy times and we hope our simple words allow you to feel comfort in knowing that others care about you. If I could reach out to all of you, I would say that you need to go easy on yourself taking the memories you have and share them endlessly with one another. You will hear stories come out that you never knew existed. God's Blessings to each one of you. Kevin and Jean (Maier) Kronebusch Dawn, Troy, Seth, and Cody: Thinking of you and wanting you to know that we just learned of this and we do care so very much. Love you all.

Brian has alot of fond memories with Mark from being in his class. I have alot of my own. I may not have got along with all of you growing up next to you all and Robby but Mark and I always got along. He would even say hi to me after 17 years of not seeing me. He was always so nice to people. He had a BIG heart and nice smile. I was shocked when I found out what happen. We are sorry and our prayers go out to you.

The Kellys-I dont even know where to start. Mark was a great guy and we loved him dearly. We have great memories, even though we no longer can make new memories with Mark he will never be forgotten. If there is anything you need, please do not hesitate to call, we are here to help you through this time. Rest in peace Mark and watch over us until we meet again. Sadly missed.

Don Gloria and Family, my heart is broken! Mark was a great friend since we were toddlers, from camping to just hanging out at mom's. Old times will remain memories and keep us all strong through difficult times yet. We do not have him for the big hugs anymore, but what we do have is the memory of the old ones that can fix anything! He will be truely missed. While nothing can fix the pain but time, know that he loved you and the short time you had with him will be forever in your heart! Our thoughts and prayers are with you! Rest in Peace Mark ~ Until we meet again, please watch over us.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time!

Don & Gloria; We were so sorry to read about your son Mark. Because we also lost a son at a young age our hearts can sincerely share in the loss and pain you must be feeling. May God Bless you and may Mark rest in Peace. Dixie Deyo Fewell

Gloria and Don, We cannot say how saddened we were to hear about Mark. I remember him being a little "wild" when I would drop off or pick up my kids from your house. He was always able to make me smile though. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. If you need anything at all, we are only a phone call away.

Mark used to be at our house all the time as one of our many extra's, he was such a fun guy to have with us. He was one of our Jessie's best friends. He really did love her thru and thru. when she died he was just a wreck. I felt so sorry for him and his loss. Each time I would see him, he would say Hi Ma! and give me a tight hug and cry. My heart goes out to all of you. Time will someday heal your hurt. but not right now. Be kind to yourselves. Love and Peace, Helen Boucher

The Kelly Family- I was lucky enough to know Mark thru my brother, Chris. He was truly a great guy, always nice and just very genuine. He always made a point of saying hi whenever I would see him, whether it was at the grocery store or in a parking lot. What started as a quick hello, would soon lead into a 20 minute conversation (Mark doing most of the talking). I will miss those times I’ve shared with Mark. Peace, Prayers and Blessings. –Mellisa Wagner

Goria,Don and family my heart goes out to you all. Growing up next to you all for 22+ years I had great memories with Mark(some Don did not like) that I will hold on forever God bless you all! Rest in peace Mark.

I first knew Mark 20 years ago while camping in South Dakota with the Petersons. Then he came to work at Main Street and I had the honor to work with him and get to know him again. He was a great person to work with and to speak with. I could tell by the way he spoke of his parents and his home he will be missed very much by all. My prays will be with you all.

Don and Gloria we are so sorry to hear of your loss of your son Mark.May God be with you and your family.Your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Don, Gloria, and family: I am very saddened by the loss of Mark. I remember Mark as the little red-headed boy sitting in the chair, quiet and minding his own business, while Joe and I would drop our kids off for Gloria to babysit on occassion. I cannot imagine the pain you feel. I can only hope that peace finds a way into your hearts. I will be praying for all of you. God Bless ~ Chris (Rinartz) Knutson

My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family. In knowing Mark since a child, and then not seeing him until after nearly 25 years, I recently became re-aquanted with him. He will be sadly missed by all who know and love him. I cannot imagine the hurt and pain that the family is going through. May Mark rest in peace. May God Bless the Kelly family.

Mark was a co- worker of my husband's at the town of Shelby and yes he truly did have a unique personality but could always bring a smile to the people around him. We were so shocked to get the sad news. He will truly be missed. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.

Mark was a great man and there for ALL of his friends! He has went beyond for those he loved. It is hard to believe that he is no longer on this earth. His family (which is considered my family) will always be in my thoughts and prayers. And forever in my heart. I will miss Marks unique personality. He truley was one of a kind. I am so deeply sorry that his parents have to go thru this along with Tracy and her family, Dawn and her family Keith and his family and also Katie. I can not imagine the hurt that all of you have indured thru this. My heart goes out to you all. You are all in my prayers and forever in my thoughts!!!!!!!!!! Nancy
