Mark Uribe family - I knew Mark throughout high school and was a neighbor in Phoenix during his pursuit of culinary excellence @Scottsdale. The chef could cook! I know Mark loved you his family. As others have stated, we knew Mark as a good friend to many, he was humorous and had a unique, infectiuos laughter. His joy of life would radiate to those around him. A prayer you find peace and joy in his memories and continue to radiate for those you love.

Two of our children road the school bus and went to school with Mark when he lived in Hiawatha. He was a nice lad and no doubt carried that characteristic with him into adulthood.
Our condolences to all those he left behind.

Dear Angela and Family - My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I was blessed to have known Mark since the 2nd grade; he was not only a good friend but a very kind and caring person to all. He will be missed by many! I like to think that when we lose a loved one we are really gaining an angel. Hopefully you can take comfort in knowing that you have an angel watching over you.

Angela & family-
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with all of you as you mourn and celebrate Mark's life. I have the privilege of knowing Mark as a friend in high school. We had a lot of good times during those years and the early years out of high school before we all moved away to try and act like grown ups. Mark gave me and many of the Regis crew memories that we all still get to laughing at almost 30 years later. [Weekends messing around, football practices, his parents Manny & Liz and dog Paco, skiing in MN, etc.] Getting together at the last reunion with Mark was like continuing a conversation from the day before. The friendship worked that easily!
Know that Mark will always hold a special place in all of our hearts!
