Our deepest Sympathy to Betty and family. Many happy times at those Snapon Kickoff parties with you guys

Mark always had a sense of humor and a big heart under his grawly exterior. He always teased me calling me Ca -Ca (shit in German)  Iwould reply with “I’m your favorite sister-in-law”. When I asked him lately what he wanted me to say at his funeral- his reply- was “Farewell you Fu____”. He made the best drinks. He was so tender to my daughter and her daughters. Also a joker with the boys. He took such great care of Betty and put up with all her goofiness that I know earned him a place in heaven. May you rest in peace Mark and know that you won’t be forgotten.

Betty and family, deepest sympathies. Mark was a great guy, always fun to be around. Whether a fishing boat or a softball diamond, he was the best!

To the Julkas .  My love and condolences .  But mostly thank you for the many memories.  From my job at pants and pants where I met Mark 50 years ago, when Betty was my boss, to the many times I was a part of your family.  Always welcomed in all your homes, and many memories watching the boys grow.   Memories from  the New Year’s parties, where  Mark  always made a wonderful meal for us, where we had fun in the hot tub, and when we put a piano in the bon fire. Memories from  boating on the fox river, to the times at lake Lucerne, with all the fun and wild laughs, to our trip to Jamaica, again with the fun and the wild laughs.  We shared many meals, many beverages, and many many many laughs.   These memories will forever be a part of me.  Thank you.       The last time I was with you , you weren’t well.  It broke my heart to see you so sick.   But I did kiss you good-bye, and I did tell you I loved you, and you did tell  me you loved me back.  For that memory I will be forever grateful.         RIP my friend.  Enjoy the presence of God .   He’s been waiting for you.
