Mark, Lisa and I were roomies many years ago in our early 20's. Mark went to St. Rose and worked at Lum's. We lived on Madison Ave in Albany. Mark was full of life, talked allot and LOVED to sing! That boy loved to sing. Ten years ago I was in Big Lots in Rensselaer, said to myself, "who is that singing...so familiar". Without even seeking him out in the store, I knew it was Mark! He had a great voice, a happy voice. We were not in contact allot over the years, but when I did see him, he made me happy to be alive. I am truly sorry for your loss, Ferguson family. Beth Deso

My condolences to the Ferguson family. Mark was my brother. We grew up together on Rapp Road. There were many times we just would sit and talk about our youth. When we both became grandparents, there were long conversations and plenty of pictures. I´ll miss you my brother. Rest in Peace!
