With the recent Metro crash in DC, I thought once again of how a life, anyone's life, can be taken at any time. This hit home even harder as I just found out a friend of mine died after being hit by a vehicle leaving his art exhibit. I went to Mark's exhibit and talked to him over an hour as he was just so great to talk to. I left him a hour before this tragic event happened upon him. Those of us who knew Mark will indeed miss him, his smile, his artwork and his zest for life.

Stuart, Well done, thank you. It's 4:30 in the morning here in California and I'm stumbling around wide awake still in shock over Mark's passing. I can't believe he's gone. Every 5 minutes or so it seems, another grand memory of Mark pops into my head. Some are sweet some are subtle and some are riotously hysterical, of course! I feel so incredibly lucky to have shared 26 years of a close friendship with him. He had so many friends because he was as passionate about people as he was passionate about Art. I look forward to celebrating him with Anne and the large group of friends at the memorial. --Nan Sincero
