Although Mark and I havent been on the best of terms for the last 15 years or so, this news saddens me. Meeting Mark back in 1987 changed the direction of my life. For a couple of years, I was a constant presense in his shop, driving from Raleigh to Greensboro almost every day, working on my car, eatting dinner at Elizabeth's or Western Sizzlin' and driving back home. Mark taught me a lot about Buicks and really got me started on working on them and trying to figure out how to make them faster.
Rest in peace, Mark
