Lots of memories of Mark. He will be greatly missed.
Minnie as my friend, I know your heart is broken. I had not met Mark, but if he was anthing like his mother, he was a great child. My prayers are with you and your family and you have my condolences.
Mark was my touchstone and I miss him dearly. We shared a special bond that not many people have. I’ll never forget the kindness of his heart and I feel blessed to have called him my friend. I love you with all my heart. Till we meet again my friend. Peace, prayers, and God’s blessings to his mom & dad and sister.
Mark was my very best friend! He told me the truth and never held back. That’s just who he was. He was the only one person in my life that never ever gave up on me. He encouraged me to do things that I believed to be impossible. I am a stronger, independent woman because of his faith in me. One of the funniest stories (and we had many)we brought up many times over the years was when we were in High School. We were riding in his car and had just purchased ice cream cones. I didn’t want mine anymore so decided to throw it out his window. I thought it was rolled down, so I chunked it. Well…the window was NOT rolled down. It hit the glass and onto his lap. He absolutely thought I’d lost my mind. He looked down and then right at me. My hand went straight over my mouth. “I am so sorry, I replied. While this only took a few seconds. Mark just happened to run a red light and here came the police. After explaing what had happed and the Officer could obviously see the melting ice cream in Mark’s lap he let him go with just a warning. I had to promise never to eat ice cream in his car ever again. I even cleaned his window. I will miss Mark everyday for the rest of my life. He is absolutely irrreaplacable. I find some comfort knowing without a doubt that one day I will be with him again in Heaven. Mark will walk me me around Heaven and give me a tour of everything. We will rejoice together. In every “Situation” God has a plan. We have no idea what those plans are but our Creator does. I love you forever Mark Barnett! Until we meet again.
Mark’s biggest joy in life was making/seeing others happy. He was a gentle soul who loved his family more than words can say. He left us all with wonderful memories that will help us through the difficult days ahead. My deepest condolences to his family.
