Mark,

You were always somewhat of an enigma to me. You had so much energy and dedication that never seemed to diminish. You always found time for everything and everybody else, and still I'm not sure how you managed that.

I lost a new friend too early into my adventure here. I just want to thank you for opening your friendship to me and for giving me your time. I also want to thank you for including me in your vision. And you had vision.

I am sorry that you never got to live the new life you had new plans for, but I'm happy that you spent the last few years doing what you really wanted to do, that was a blessing from time not many of us get.

You used your time well.

A legacy remains, as we all know. There are hundreds of people here who are eternally grateful for your efforts and the community you started to build. I believe this will only grow stronger and bigger.

We'll miss you and we'll look after what you left us with. You really were the Architect.

Cheers mate, rest in peace.
