Guest Book

To the family words can't express how sorry we are for this profound loss. Coach Marks was a wonderful person inside and out. He had a amazing smile and laugh. Mr. Coach Marks was such an integral part of our high School years. He was a great coach, leader, teacher, role model, and father figure to so many. When I tried out for track I told him I couldn't do it and he said yes you can and will. I tried out and had success with it because of Coach Marks. The face of Bluestone High School for many many students was Coach Marks. He will be truly missed and in the hearts of so many of us. He made such a positive impact during that time. I will never forget his kindness and leadership. Not many people are able to touch so many lives on this earth but he did just that. To the family and his kids, you have our deepest heartfelt condolences and prayers. We will always love you Coach Marks .....Audrey M. Smith and Jackie D. Russell from class of 2008
