From our wedding July 13, 1985 Cathy & Rawley Cooper

We're so sorry to hear about Mark. We want share a happier moment. This is from our wedding Dec 5, 1982. From Lee and Nancy Thalblum

Just found this picture from when Mark would get to the NYC convention on a Thursday and get up really early to go outside the Today Show with groups of origami people and his posters. Arlene

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.

I recall with pleasure the many interactions I have had with Mark since we were both members, during the 1980s and 90s,  of the circulating magazine, FOLD. I n addition to writing stimulating messages and contributing diagrams to the magazine, he encouraged FOLD members to attend the  annual NYC Convention (and even planned  meetings, lunches and dinners of members during the Convention).  Over the years, it seems that Mark, with his vast array of origami pins and spirited give and take around a big table of admirers, was a presence at almost every origami convention I attended.  On a more personal level, he promoted my books and frequently notified me about  interesting books and articles on origami from  around  the world.  He will be sorely missed.
