Mark,  you have always been an AMAZING Uncle to My Children and I have always been an AMAZING Aunt to your two boys. I spoke to you the day you passed away and we were planning on meeting for Dinner with the kids because I reminded you that NO MATTER WHAT you are and will FOREVER be my children’s Uncle.  You seemed fine that day and even kept making me laugh.  We cried, we laughed and you Thanked me over and over for always being there for Stephen from the moment he was born up until you and Alice split.  You reminded me that from the moment Stephen was born I always came to pick him up and he would stay the weekends with me. You would always tell him go call your Aunt Helen.  You have impacted my children’s lives and no matter the circumstances that you went through you always had a smile.  No matter what issues you were personally dealing with it did not make you any less of a Man, Father, Brother, Uncle, Friend.  I just wish there was some way for us to all help you but no matter how much we tried it was not enough and now we have to go on in this world without you.  I know you are in Heaven with all of our loved ones and you are looking down on us all and protecting us.  Please watch over Stephen.  Please help him get straightened out and show him just how amazing he is and just how special he is. Please be with Alice and help her through all these trying times and show her that there is so very very much more for her in this life and that her Calue is so much more then she is settling for.  Please protect Alice and Stephen.  Keep them safe and push them towards the right path.  The path God wants them to take.  Please Protect me and my kiddos and help keep us strong.  I love you Brother in Law and will always tell your stories to your nieces and nephew.  I’ll remind them how much you loved them and remind them of the memories you shared with them.  Rest and Fly with all the mighty Angels.  Tell my mom and dad I love them and that their Babygirl needs their love, protection, strength and to also help Alice.  RIP!!  Always, Helen
