Dear Hanna, Mark, Sam and Laura, 

We send our deepest condolences on the loss of your father and father-in-law, Mark. He was a thoughtful, creative and loving man and neighbor who contributed much to our world through his life, work and especially his wonderful family. We miss him dearly.

Love, 

John, Sybil, Midori and Naomi Marsh

Still hard to believe that G is no longer with us. We had our semi semi annual boys weekend at my home in Silver Spring MD.  93 days before I got the text from his son Sam that he had passed. At least my final memories of G are happy ones, with us hitting the local casino, drinking bourbon, grilling and golfing. He was also studying Portuguese language recordings on his computer for his visit (or possible retirement?) there.  G will be missed. Paul Shepard
Mark was a great guy and true friend. We shared formative years in journalism, raucous times as house mates, and the ups and downs of professional careers. A lot of our communication was bro chat, shared during many hours spent bumping along in a golf cart. But there was also heart-felt reflection and sharing about our lives as dads and husbands, both of us blessed with tremendous wives and kids. Our gratitude and love for each other went unsaid until Mark’s final months, when it felt good to say, “I love you, bro.” I miss Mark a lot, but have crazy good memories. I’m so glad he lives on with Sam and Martha Hanna.
