Kim, Danny and Family,
There are no words to express how deeply saddened we were to hear of your loss. My son, Jacob, and Danny have been in the same class for the past two years and are Resource Room buddies. I only met Mark once or twice at class functions, but you could tell how much he loved Danny. Our prayers for God's comfort and strength will be with you for months to come.
In Him,
Colleen, Jay and Jacob Raymond

Dear Mrs. Scheuer,
I was deeply saddened to learn of Mark's death and I would like to express to you my sincere sadness and sympathies to you and your family at this difficult time on behalf of the management here at Perrigo. Your husband was a respected member of our team. During his short time here, his dedication and selfless nature was always something that many others could only hope to attain and all who knew him regarded him with great respect and admiration.
Please accept my sincere and heartfelt condolences at this most difficult of times and please pass these feelings onto your children and Mark's friends.
He will be greatly missed and we here are all saddened by his passing and our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.
With Sincere Sympathy,
