Honoring Mark: Support for His Final Farewell

I write this GoFundMe with nothing but love, love for my beautiful nephew Mark, who we tragically lost this past week.

Just 2 days after his 8th birthday, he took his final rest Friday morning, leaving a permanent hole in everyone who knew him's hearts.

He was, and remains, such a strong, brave young boy. At such a young age, he was already the star of the show. Filled with so much charisma and charm, he always managed to bring a smile to anyone’s face. For such a small boy, Mark had such a big personality. Always dancing and singing. There was never a dull moment when he was around.

Mark never failed to make someone feel loved, always giving out compliments and making conversation. He had the biggest heart a child could have, always wanting to be with family, especially his cousins. He was the biggest goofball, saying the silliest things and cracking terrible jokes that you couldn’t help but laugh at.

Mark had such a bright future ahead of him, with big dreams of being a Police Officer and a Rapper on the side. He could never decide and was so determined to do both. He could do anything he put his mind to; there was never a task too big for him. Mark was the definition of a helping hand, always seeking ways to be involved and help wherever he could.

Mark was a grandson, a nephew, a friend, a big brother, and most importantly, a son. He will be dearly missed by family and friends.

At this time, we ask family, friends, and strangers to help support us in coming together for a celebration of his life. Help support Mark’s family in giving him the best sendoff one could give for their child who was taken too early.

Every penny and share counts.

Thank you.
