    My heartfelt condolences to all of Mark's family. I was lucky enough to have worked with Mark at Sullivan Tire, and I will always keep many fond memories of him. I cannot think of him now without instantly remembering his laugh and his smile. He was well loved, and he will be missed by many.

    You are all in our thoughts and prayers during this most difficult time. So many fond memories I have of Mark and your whole family growing up together on Rice Ave/Cottonwood. We are and always will be the dead end kids. I will always treasure my childhood memories of our neighborhood. God Bless.

    Dear ENTIRE Rose family, Mark was a great friend growing up in the Cottonwood Lane/Rice Avenue neighborhood. So many great memories including football at the water towers, Big Rock, hockey at Kane's Pond, nightly hide-n-seek games, card games and the delicious pizza made for us by Ed Rose. Other great memories include the blizzard of 78, skid hopping, snowball fights, shoveling for the neighborhood, and weeks off from school. One of the best memories was our first concert together in 1978 to see AEROSMITH, thanks to Danny Packard for driving us! The Rose family was the first in the neighborhood to have a pool and always invited the neighborhood kids to use it. Mark and Kevin were like my brothers and always willing to lend a hand if needed! Through the years and distances, we have lost touch but your family has always been in our thoughts! Mark was a wonderful person always smiling and ready to make you laugh. He will be greatly missed. We are deeply sorry for your loss. Love, Mark and Mary Lucas

    Dear Chris, Nina and Family, It was very obvious you Chris and Nina were the two most important people in Mark's life. Anytime you would see him there was the million dollar smile. I have not seen Mark in years but have always had a special place in my heart for him. Anyone that knew Mark Rose was the lucky one. Our thoughts and love are with all of you.

    I will always think back with a smile of the time when we were kids riding dirt bikes. My hope and prayer is that he has found peace with our father in heaven and his family will be comforted by that .
