My sincerest condolences to Mark’s family. I have many fond memories of Mark with the East Putnam Fire department and as a member of the family while he was married to Lisa Bruneau-adams. He was a great friend and brother in law. I will keep all of you in my prayers. No parent should ever have to bury a child, its a living hell. Alden and Kyle, auntie loves you and i am always just a phone call away.
