“How many times have you heard ‘it’s business, not personal?’ For Mark, it was personal,” said Andrew Gordon, director of enterprise marketing at Mimeo and executive committee member with PRIMIR. “For me, he was far more than my go-to PR guy. He was a brilliant strategic advisor, both personally and professionally, always there, behind the scenes, counseling, guiding and ensuring that I thought through every angle and detail before making a key decision. He approached all of his relationships this way and was passionate and personally committed to helping his friends and clients succeed. I will miss the countless conversations where he shared his thoughts and experiences on topics ranging from cooking, design, art, music, politics, his amazing wife and stepson, and his many pets. We have lost a great soul and he will be missed.”
