      It's real, it's from the heart, and really it's helpful in many ways. That's a beautiful thing. As a 35yr old male I'd have watched a 20minute "ramble" about your feelings too, so have no worries about that) Now is the time for it. Do it whenever you want or need to. P.S. how your humor glints through is so heartwarming 😅it's a good muscle to keep strong.
      God bless. Praying for you and the little humans.

      Yep. 30 year old male here. I also will listen.
      The take from it for me is. We will all at some point go through death of a loved one. In some form and we will all have to face it and deal with it in one way or another. Right now, i haven't been through it luckily. But my time will come and when it does. I will be more prepared and stronger from watching these and learning to cope with it in the best way i can.
      Like a lot of people have said. We came for Mark but now we're going to stay for you. Baby steps, but you'll pick it up! You can, like most people learn on the job.
      And we're all here to watch you grow. As a family and a UA-camr.

If you ever decided to grace us with your thoughts, you would have my/our full attention. RIP Mark. We all miss you in our own ways, but I know we can’t ever miss you the way your wife and kids do. I know you’re looking down on them and I truly believe that you aren’t missing there successes, just from a different elevation.

So, thanks ladies for being kind. It made me feel a lot better.

I hope Jackie has moved on, which is kind of indicated by the lack of updates for the last three years. You have to, for the sake of the kids you just have to, and I'm sure they both talked about this a lot during that final year. You have to continue your life and get to a happy place again, otherwise what's the point? This channel is his legacy, his memory, his humour and his bravery. It will always be something his children can tap into and be inspired by, as well as being an archive of what a strong and amazing Dad they had.

From Pew-Pews, saving animals, rebuilding and building things, facing the loss of oneself and those you love. Dr. Lee is a dad that those lacking a father figure can look up to, and Drewski…… well, teaches how to be your best online sniper.
    This channel could continue as a blueprint for people recovering from loss, if she feels called to do so. If she chooses to let it be, and this is the last video posted, that's fine too. I appreciated Mark, and I appreciate Jacqueline for sharing what she has. Peace and happiness to you ma'am.
