"Faith is what makes life bearable, with all its "Tragedies" and ambiguities and sudden starling mishaps. And in times like these we're actually to make each other strongand I'am sure this is what Mark would have wanted.Mark Gay----- what a wonderful creation, one that God created to only visit us and to pass on his joy to the world as he did. He will be missed. God bless his family and God watch over his son who is now with out a father.

I wish his Son and Family simply the very best during this difficult time.

To his Son, the biggest tribute you can give to your Dad is to grow up and be a good man. Your Dad will be looking down on with you with a big smile!!

I can only say that after all of the facts are collected, and the person or persons who caused this horrific accident is punished, then maybe the families can begin the healing process. And we all know that no matter what happens it will not bring back those who are gone. Memories of laughter and good times can make the pain lesson a bit.

Our family has known Mark for several years and have been his regular clients. Mark was not only successful business person, he was a caring, compassionate man who loved his son dearly. We never spent time together that he didn't talk about his son, how much he loved him, wanted the best for him, and missed him when they were not together. Our prayers are with his son and family, and we will never forget how fortunate we were to have known Mark and spent time with him. It is important for those who do not know him to know that Mark was an excellent and experienced driver who was cautious and focused on the safety and service of his cients. He has driven for us and for our children on many, many occasions, and he was always a model of professionalism behind the wheel. He did not drive at excessive speeds or drive too agressively. We have trusted our lives to him and those of our children for years, and we know Mark died trying to do the very best for those who he was driving. We miss him greatly, and grieve with everyone concerned with this tragedy. When he gets to heaven, we feel God will say to Mark, "Well done, you good and faithful servant."

I met Mark in 1989 when we worked together in the retail business. Later I assisted him with financing his home. I spoke with him a little over a year ago and he was doing really well with his limo business. Mark made good business decisions and was a successful businessman. He enjoyed life and the people that he shared it with. I was shocked to hear of this very tragic accident that took his life. My sincere condolences to his son and family.

I was a patron and fan of Mark's and share the sentiment regarding the quality of service and care one received when patronizing Destiny Limousine. I respected him because of his commitment to being Brandon's father, he loved that young man. I admired his desire to step out on faith to realize his dream of being a business man. His time was too short but rejoice in knowing that he touched many lives and his smile alone made the world a brighter place. My thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends he is leaving behind.
