Mark Rivera's childhood friends from Corpus Christi, Texas, would like to establish a scholarship fund in his honor for his two-year old daughter, Natalia.  Mark's kindness, humor, intelligence, and generosity of spirit will be remembered by all who knew him.  He was very involved with the Methodist Church, and served as a part-time minister. He died of pancreatic cancer. His childhood friends are devastated at his early loss and the thought of the family he is leaving behind.  We ask you to contribute in his honor so that his daughter will be taken care of by the community that Mark has helped to create.
