Im so glad I met your dad and learned some good fish stories as well as smoking salmon for him.
God Blessed your daddy with peace

When we lost Mike years ago you were my rock and kept Mike alive for me every time I got to see you. I know how you hurt with the loss of Mike but you carried on. I know you struggled but I also know you are back with Mike and I hope you are finally at peace now too. Im so sad we never got to fulfill one of my bucket list wishes which was to ride on a Harley. You were going to take me for a ride this summer but that’s ok my friend. You will be missed everyday. šš So Mark as your last text to me said…love ya but kiss my ass!
I can only move forward with your spirit in my heart Mark š¤
Mark and I spent many years working together parting together and living together on many CP rail work crews. One of the most enjoyable times was playing hockey in the CP hockey tournament in Coquitlam we spent the weekend partying and even played some hockey lol. For anyone who got to know Mark knows that infectious laugh and Great wit can never be forgotten. Take care, brother, safe journey, and will see you again.
