Mark's Story
Life
I graduated from Germantown, Tenn., High in May 1975. Life has had some interesting curves. I graduated, as I always thought I would, four years later from the University of Missouri School of Journalism. But that was tainted by the death of my mother six days before commencement.
I worked in Ky., Conn., and N.C. before coming to S.C. in 1983. I've worked at the same newspaper since in a variety of jobs.
I was married in ...Expand for more
1986 to a wonderful woman, and we had a daughter in 1989. Tragically, my wife died of a rare lung disease in 1996.
Shed no tears for me, though. I have since remarried another wonderful woman, who is a physician, and we have a wonderful little boy who was born in 1999.
It's through God's grace that I write this. I truly count my blessings each day.
I would really welcome e-mail from my fellow graduates of the class of 1975.
