This last week my dear sweet Uncle Mark Payne, my mothers little brother, passed away suddenly. My heart hurt terribly when I got the news! He will be terrible missed! What a wonderful man!  It was amazing to see how many people came to pay their respects. What an wonderful way to tell the impact he made in this world and to see who his life touched. I am so honored to have known and been close to him! I will miss so dearly all his teasings at the family gatherings and the light in his smile! It just beamed so bightly from his face! He was such a strong loving man and had such a strong testimony of the gosple! His funeral was beautiful and I know his memory will live forever! I feel so sorry for my Aunt and cousins who will miss him more than anyone! And also for my Dear grandmother who lost a husband and a son within 6 months of eachother.  It is so sad to see him go so soon. . . but I know he is watching over all of us and someday we will see him again!
LOVE YOU UNCLE MARK!
