We'll miss you, Mark

Oh, I wish I'd known about this site while Mark was still alive! I just hope he knew how much he meant to us. Tovi's been going to the museum folding sessions ever since Mark first told us about them, and for the past six and a half years – from all the models and jokes he shared to his thoughtful emails, witty T-shirts, and endless warmth, patience, and humor – he's been such a heartening fixture in our lives. Pi Day (which happens to be Tovi's birthday, too) won't be as sweet without him. Sending you all our love and sympathy, Arlene.
 
Rachel, Eric and Tovi

[EXTERNAL] -Photos for Mark

It’s very sad to hear of Mark’s passing. I was fortunate in my younger years to be able to travel to the US from London, for 1 or 2 conventions including OUSA and PCOC, and I was blessed to meet him there.   He immediately demonstrated his kind loving nature and his character of sharing. From giving away loads of his handmade origami badges (which my mum wears all the time with her Saris) to giving away photocopies of diagrams he had collected over time.   I will miss his fun, loving qualities and I pray he will rest in peace.   Vignesh Cumareshan (London, British Origami Society) ------------------------------------------------------------- Notice of Confidentiality: The contents of this e-mail and any attachments are confidential and copyright to HCA International and may also be privileged.

Hi Mark

Hi Mark I started bringing my nieces to the convention when they were about 8 years old. (They are 22 now)  It became a tradition to buy a pin or two from you at each convention.  When they were young, they would ask to go see the "Pin Man".   This is a photo of Kristen and Courtney at the last convention they attended at Manhattan College. We are all sending happy thoughts your way.
