When I close my eyes and think of Mark I immediately think of his voice/laugh, it was very distinguished and memorable. Mark was my older, 'cool' cousin and I remember once in Elmira, him and my 'cool' older brother, Scott, let me join them on a walk to the store. We ended up running into some of Mark's friends and he introduced me. I was on cloud nine just because they let me hangout with them, haha. I also remember once Mark and Scott showing up after I had gotten home from the market. I told them I got pepperoni sticks but didnt realize they were extra spicy. Mark took one bite, turned bright red and spit it out, waiving his hand in front of his tongue to cool down. I ran into the house and grabbed him the koolaid in the fridge and he jugged the entire thing. I thought he may kill me but instead he and Scott laughed their faces off at the wimpy reaction he had (I was extremely relieved! Didnt want these cool dudes hating me). I also remember Mark coming to visit me at the bank one day. He was wearing a black leather coat and all the ladies were intrigued to find out who this good looking guy in my office was. I was proud to tell them he was my cousin :) Thinking of you lots, Mark. Rest in peace
