Sending our sincerest condolences to Mark’s family and friends. My family and I are greatly heartbroken to learn of his passing.

I met Mark when I started working at Comprehensive Physical Therapy in West Brookfield, MA in 2017. We helped each other out. We also had a ton of fun at work, just being silly, listening to music, sharing stories, laughing at his text tone every time it whistled (our boss thought that was Mark’s “nervous tic” Haha 😂), having coffee/lunch together, etc. Speaking of lunch, he loved his avocado and toast. He also loved driving in the country while chatting with his friends (Jimmy, Johnny, Georgi and others) during lunch time.

Mark and I would be so happy on really hot and humid days. I told him he’s like a Filipino (like me). We were like tropical fish! He was my brother from another mother, and a great friend and coworker. We had picnics outside our clinic on nice hot summer days. I looked forward to working with Mark every Tuesdays and Thursdays. We (Mark, Kally, Anna Mae, and me) became very close over the years. We usually would go out to dinner on Thursday nights to hang out and unwind with our Comppt friends.

We kept in touch while he was getting treatments. I sent him lots of good vibes sunset or pond photos to uplift his spirit. He would send me his camping or bicycle photos with Jimmy and friends, and Scout (Sandy’s dog) photos/videos.

Mark was a great, kind and caring person who loved riding his bike, took care of his family and friends, and loved dogs. Mark will be missed greatly. We love you Mark. ❤️

Sincerely,

Jennifer Gorman (and family)
