Mark , Rick & I became close about 10 or 11 years ago. He was a great friend, great one to party with, & one hell of a fisherman. Loved to go catfishing with us down in Utah. Didn't care too much if he ate of not, but I would bug him to eat because of his diabetis. He would stay out there on the riverbank, going on down the riverbank for hours! And, man, did he catch the fish. I have a picture of him & Rick, with a FEW of the catfish he caught. And, that time it was ONLY Mark that caught ANY fish! When we would go out of town, usually on vacation - he would come & house sit, taking car of the dogs & cats. And, of course, any of the food in the freezer! We were planning on taking him down to Mexico (Puerto Penasco) the same year he was taken. He would've been bitchin' the entire way!! I can just hear him now!! Jesus, Kerry, don't you know how to open the window? All I can smell is your smoke! Isn't there anything to eat, that's sugar free! I think I need a beer! Well, here's to you Mark -Salute!!!
