Balboa Park will never be the same without you. I saw you play around town my whole life. One day in Balboa we had a nice intimate talk, as you waited for your ride. You shared with me about your life. I was impressed by your honesty. You were so kind and humble. Your biggest accomplishment was your 3 children. You were very proud of them. You told me you struggled with alcoholism in the past. I bought you a soda. You smiled. You were so brave. And underneath it all, I saw some sadness in you. That always stuck with me. I didn't like seeing you sad. It kinda broke my heart a little. I will miss you. I am happy I had the chance to personally meet you. I am very honored. You were one of the things that made San Diego America's finest city. You touched the hearts of people across the world. We were lucky to have you. Rest in peace to you and your wife. May your children find the healing they need.

He had truly inspired not only people with disabilities but those with abilities too. R.I.P.
Mark was an amazing man, I had the privilege to be in a band with him from 2004 through 2007 and we were seen by millions on 2 separate nationally televised talent programs. I always loved him like my own brother. and our lives are much richer for having him in it. Miss you bro and that wicked sense of humor too!
Dave... Jim in Vegas here. I miss him too. You know I blame Mark's death on Biden for opening the borders. I also blame myself for not being a better friend, but that didn't kill him and Ann Marie. Biden's fentanyl did that. I hope you are doing well.
RIP, I came on you tube looking for updated videos, I was not expecting what I found. Miss your smiling face and all your jokes.
Wow! So sad! I had no idea he passed! We went to kindergarten together and lost touch and in my 40’s l googled Mark with no arms and he popped up! I was so happy to be back in touch! Rest In Peace!! I am using my husband’s phone my name is Judy and we went to Lord Band Powell School in Anaheim when we were in Kindergarten . Always thought about him over the years. Mark, you were the first friend l ever had and l was amazed watching you eat a banana or paint. You will always be in my heart!!
I rember seeing him in Balboa Park when I was staring guitar in the late 90's and I couldn't belive he was playing with his feet and I asked him if he had a playback and he got mad then again I was a young teen anyways he inspired me to practice guitar more and I finally got good at it r.i.p man thanks for the inspiration for not giving up guitar
May you Rest In Peace brother!!!
Heart and 😢
Truly talented person
One great guitarist 🎸😎
Rip mark
Rip brother!!! It was an honor being able to hang out with you and your brothers.
Ive had the privelage of performing alongside Mark at the NAMM Show in Anaheim. Was so looking forward to seeing him here down under in Australia. He was an amazing talent and we shared times together that will keep him in my thoughts forever :) RIP Mate
RIP Mark. I had the privilege of knowing him and playing music with him in Hot Springs, Arkansas for a time during the 90s. Such a cool guy! Also such an inspiration!
Wow, Gone before I discovered this guy, What a loss.
What a huge loss of such talent! Mark overcame so much. Learning to live life ro the fullest, driving, and most importantly playing the guitar so well! He had a wife and a family and look what happened to him! Goddamn fentanyl!! ..such a shame. Rip Mark
You will be missed by so many. I will never forget you Mark. You were like a little brother. I have so much peace in knowing that you and Annie are with the Lord. Keeping your children and family in my thoughts and prayers. Til we meet again lil brother 🙏❤️🙏

I'm going to really bad times right now and watching Mark resilience about life just took away all my worries things will get better I know it, Thank you Mark rest in peace 🙏 Man you were a better man that I would ever be.
Mark used to go over to the Arc Center on Lexington and play guitar for the clients during their lunch break and at various dances. My son who went to the Arc Center absolutely loves Mark. He has been asking me about him a LOT during the last week so I decided to look him up and see where his band might be playing. I was extremely saddened to find that Mark had to leave us. Mark was such a wonderful human being. We love Mark very much. My condolences go out to his children for the loss of their Mom and Dad. They are surely in Heaven. The Creator sees what is in their hearts, and they had some of the best hearts ever. Sending all of you love.
Love it, Quinns & BOOMOO. From Real People to Maná & so many meaningful songs & conversations in between. Thanks for including family photos too! With Mark’s birthday coming up, I’m thankful and encouraged to stumble upon this tonight. Grace & Peace, Joe
I was visiting San Diego and saw him in Balboa Park playing "Norwegian Wood". I was bloody floored, and still embarrased because I was trying not to stare at him. A year later i found him on UA-cam. I wish I had taken the time to speak with him. He was so nice.
I still cannot believe he is not here to hug...to help while he played at Stand Down San Diego for the Veterans...they are going to meet this weekend...and I don't know if I can go out there without breaking down, except to take his spirit that is in me and so many others, to help the Veterans...again, in his name
Im glad to have met you.
A great musician performer with Ray Charles and jeff healey R.I.P
Descansa en paz amigo
✌️
I met Mark in El Cajon CA in 1987.or 88. He was impressive as hell in amny ways and an obnoxious fucker sometimes...lol Chill, that was just me laughing at a couple memories. I was behind him at a waterpark one time and when he got up to the top they thought they were not letting him go down on a mat. There was no way and hell they could tell him couldn't. At a campout one time I remember he was not satisfied with a spot conveniently by the road there. He had to trek off a few hundred yards to get the full experience. It was so cool to run across a video about 40 years later and I knew immediately it was him. Then when I read he had overdosed it saddened me. I have been clean 40 years and I met him in recovery meetings when I moved to Cali. I have been back in Texas for 30 years and I love telling stories. I never had to embellish any stories about Mark. RIP old friend.
I miss you Mark hurts that you are gone now and think about you often 😌
R.I.P. Bro...
