Mark R. Perry

I love that this picture has him holding the New England Coffee Cup because as an employee at Mercy Hospital this is the exact way I remember him. My prayers and thoughts go out to his family and everyone I know he had a HUGE life affect on.

My deepest sympathies to Mark and his family.  Denise and Steven-please accept my condolences.  It's with a heavy heart that I write this.  I know it's been since high school-I remember well the positivity that you all brought me and the incredible strength you all demonstrated.  What i remember best is Mark's wit and energy.  My brother Chuck benefited from Mark's friendship and was lucky enough to know him as the man he became.  Mark's work in Portland is a testament to his character and I know he was doing great work in a city-and a world that needs more people like Mark.  With Love

I was blessed to meet Mark when I moved to Portland about 6 years ago. He was also my husband's sponsor/mentor through alcohol and substance abuse recovery. He was a sweet soul who always looked to help others. We miss him already!!
