Mark,
I know you are in heaven with Grandma Stover and Grandpa, Grandma Cattadoris. RIP

Well here we are service day and it couldn’t feel more surreal. I can’t sleep or think of anything other than you. I haven’t signed your guest book because everytime I start to come up with the words in my head to do so, I start to choke up. Never in a million years did I ever forsee losing you so early and, you were definitely one of those people that made me happier in life just knowing you existed somewhere in the world with me.
For over 20 years we were friends, it never mattered if some time had passed where we didn’t see each other, when we did it was like nothing ever changed and we always picked up right where we left off. You were there through some of my hardest times as well as being there for some of the most light hearted. I could call you ANY time and you would be there no questions asked. Its rare in life to find a friend so genuine, giving, and true and, that’ll stick by your side year in and year out despite their own troubles that they may be having and, you were exactly that. I remember the first day I met you at the mall hair dyed black and ballchain necklace (you wanted me to braid your hair lol), I remember your black transam (my favorite), we would get in and you’d ask me left or right and we would just drive, I laughed so hard my belly ached that time you squeezed in to mine and Danielle’s jeans ( litterally always going for a laugh), or how whenever Danielle and I got in trouble as kids you always were there with us but, it didn’t matter my parents loved you and looked to you to continually blow us in lol. You were around so much you were even allowed by our Dad to be in our room and, thats saying ALOT lol. I won’t forget the endless hours of Spades we played and how you were the biggest antagonist through it all but in the end you kind of had rights to be because you AlWAYS won! (Smh… lol 😣😢😭) or, how you always came bearing gifts for my sister and I for our birthdays, Christmas, or just because. I’d spend so much time doing my hair so we could all go out just for you to mess it all up , I’d get so mad at you but it didn’t matter..you were like a brother and that was the relationship we had, we were comfortable doing that sort of thing to one another lol. I remember crying on your shoulder a FEW different times and you would always confide in me about girls lol. I remember going out and buying all the ingredients to make our own Alfredo sauce (your idea) and it came out horrible, so thick and chunky with clumps of cheese (we ate it anyway) or, getting a hold of a pair of your Caffeine sweatpants and my sister and I fought over who was gonna wear them. Or the first time I ever saw you in a regular pair of jeans..it was so different lol.
I could really go on forever in memories and things that make me laugh and smile on your behalf but, the point is this is heartbreaking 💔 because I will never EVER find another friend like you. You were genuine in the most unique way, YOUR way and, you will forever be missed. My heart goes out to your family (who I know you were extremely close with and adored, I was always filled in on the latest news of them 🙂) and, to your friends who will forever be affected by your loss. Your were a loving, funny, caring, original kind of person who will forever be sorely missed by those who knew you. The world as we know it will never be the same with your passing too soon. I love you Mark Cattidoris, always have, always will. Rest in Peace my DEAREST friend. Until we meet again…..
