I have the best memories of Uncle Mark. He was always a joy to be around and I always looked forward to his visits. Joking, laughing, making silly faces and raising everyones spirits. If my memory is right he was one of the few players who could hit a softball over the fence of the big field at the Paradise Ball Park. Thank you Uncle Mark for all the joy you brought into our lives. You are greatly missed by everyone who was fortunate to have known you. Memories of you will always put a smile on my face.

Sorry for your loss of Mark. David is right, Mark could drive the baseball out of the Paradise ball field. Also his pitching to his catcher was always a good show. The catcher was his brother Pat and they knew what each other was going to without any signals to each other. Mark always had a great grin that made you wonder what he was up to. Fun loving but caring for the people around. You will be missed. From the Gardner clan in Chico.
