Dear Linda and family,

I was so sorry to hear about Mark’s passing. Mark was a pioneer in the energy risk management field and I always greatly admired his innovative thinking around managing and financing risk. Notwithstanding his progressiveness, Mark always maintained a non-assuming and gentle manner. He was a consummate professional and never left the human side out of business. He will be missed. My warmest wishes are with you all. Kiren Singh

To Mark’s family,

I was shocked and saddened to hear of Mark’s passing. He was a very well-respected risk manager, supporter of his team members and colleagues, and community service person, and I enjoyed working with and traveling with Mark on risk inspection tours.

Linda, our deepest sympathies to you and the family on Mark’s passing. He was a brilliant, funny man who so generously gave his time and shared his wisdom with anyone who asked, including me on many occasions. He was a thought leader in the insurance and risk management community where he will be sorely missed. May your cherished memories and the love of family and friends surround you and provide comfort to you in these difficult days ahead.

Sending our love and prayers to all of you from Portugal. God Bless and keep you in His loving arms.

So sorry for your loss. Mark was a great co-worker and friend. He definitely left us much too soon.

Dear Linda and family,

I am so very sorry for your loss. Mark always had a smile and words of wisdom to offer. May the love and support of your family and friends help you through this difficult time.

Dear Mark’s Family, We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Mark was a fantastic professor who wasn’t afraid to challenge his students. He taught us so much and for that we will always be grateful.

Mark was a man of true integrity and character, with a warm heart and a cracking sense of humour. He was open to experience new things, take new opportunities and to trust new people and I consider myself lucky to have shared in some of those experiences with him.

I was saddened to hear of Mark’s passing. I worked with Mark a million years ago at Canadian Indemnity in Winnipeg and have fond memories of Mark especially his wit and sense of humor. My sincerest condolences to his family. Rest in peace old friend.
