Our beloved Mark Thomas passed away on Friday July 6th, 2018. We are raising money to fund his memorial service and to also send his body back to India where he will be united with his homeland. 

We had some requests from friends and coworkers to start this fund, so it's completely optional. Your love and prayers are enough. 

Thank you in advance for all the kindness and generosity we've been receiving in the last few days.

May his spirit and memory live on in each of our hearts. Thank you.

A bit about me and what we're doing here:
For those of you who don't know, my name is Chinh and I am Mark's girlfriend. We have been together for more than a year. I'm originally from Sacramento but recently Mark and I lived together in San Francisco. We are intending to use the funds to pay for his memorial service, the expenses to manage his estate, the cost of sending his body back to India, and possibly the cost of having family members fly to India/USA to attend his memorial services.
