"Mark, How happy Mom and Dad must have been when you walked up to them in Heaven. I am glad you can now walk with them and are no longer chained in a body that kept you captive here on earth. I will miss you and hold you in my heart forever. Love you Mark, Fran "
"I took care of Mark well over 30 years ago at Monroe Developemental Center. He was always my favorite patient and I even brought my oldest son, who was a toddler at the time to help me take him to outings that they had. I have thought about him often over the years, and am truly sad to see that he passed. I would like to think that he is in a better place now and no longer enclosed in the body that held him captive."
