To paraphrase Robert Louis Stevenson: A man is a success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and women and the love of children; who leaves the world a better place than he found it; who never lacked appreciation of Earth's beauty or the diversity of its Peoples and cultures; who looked for the best in others and gave the best he had. Donations can be made to the WWF- World Wildlife Fund in Mark's memory.
