After several weeks of feeling run down, feverish and flu like Mark went to the hosipital on July 1st and was diagnosed with an agressive form of leukemia. Mark was receiving chemo and was in good spirits. After being in the hospital for 2 weeks he was leukemia free. However, because his immune system had been severly compromised his body was unable to fight off infections. He passed away late Saturday afternoon.

Mark was loved by everyone and is already deeply missed

Family, friends and musicians.

I met Mark at an evening Music trade show event several months ago, as we spoke I instantly felt the passion for music he had inside.
We talked for quite awhile about sound venues he had worked at in my area of Northwest Washington.
He was definitely a connoisseur of high end sound gear and knew his way around the studio.
I will miss his expertise and down to earth attitude.
I Know that where ever Mark is there is Music.

My sincere condolences to Marks Family, Friends and Co-Workers.
