My name is Nichole.

Friday, my family got devastating news about our friends that became family having a tragedy take place.

Imagine waking up, kissing your family to leave for work, and never making it home. That's exactly what took place. Markie woke up, got ready for work, and never made it home to his wife and son.

Grace and Gabriel are left without a husband and father after a workplace accident occurred at work on Friday.

I started this GoFundMe as a way to help her in this time for funeral, for college, for bills, whatever she will need to use this for. Mark was an amazing human being. Everyone that knew him loved him. Hardworking and a great family man.

This is a shock to all of us that loved him. Their life has changed so drastically, and it shouldn't be this way just from a man getting up, doing the right thing, and going to work and never making it home from the job site. Anything you can donate will help my friend, my sister, my nephew out as life changed so quickly for them.
