I only knew Mark through Colorado VR/AR. He was so generous in sharing his knowledge and keeping the community rolling along. Humble, smart, curious. Great guy all around, he will be missed. Susan Crouse

I worked with Mark a number of years in the late 90s. We both moved from Virginia to California when our company relocated. He was a great colleague and an amazing friend. I miss his unique style and sense of humor. Many fond memories.

The staff of the American Cancer Fund at www.AmericanCancerFund.org is sorry to hear of Mark’s passing. We have received a memorial donation in his name and our sincere condolences go out to his family. 

What a great colleague and friend we had in Mark.  No matter how busy he was, he always took the time to ask how things were going, and if he could help.  I can't tell you how many clients were wowed by demos of his Virtual Reality offerings, and how grateful I am that he was willing to share this passion with all of us. 

How lucky I feel to have had the privilege of working with and becoming friends with Mark. 

So sorry to hear about Mark. Glad he died peacefully.  Here he is helping to celebrate the 4th of July 2019 during our neighborhood parade.  I didn't know him that well, and this  was a nice memory.  We will miss him and send best wishes to Jun and his family.

Mark was a great mentor to me at work and did so much to make me really want to be better at my job. We flew to New Jersey six times together for work, and I think only he could have made trips to New Jersey so much fun. The walking tour we took that included crossing the Brooklyn Bridge will always be a great memory.

Mark, I'm glad you got to own a Tesla, an electric car that finally met up with your near-impossible standards. It's my desire from now on to enjoy my work as much as you did. Thank you for all you taught me.
