I’ ve only been seriously into woodworking for about 2 years, so I’m still accumulating tools. Getting a lathe and trying my hand at turning is definitely on my to-do list.

i have no dovetails on my pine box because i made it in my shop and still dont have a dovetail jig. i used my shop teachers dove tail jig to do the other ones.

I’m going to be doing the holiday shop (santa’s work shop) for a few of the local schools in my area ! I’m looking for ideas for fast , easy projects with little cost to make , so I can donate them for the under privileged childeren to give to their parents for the holidays (x-mas & such) . Childern of all walks of life also find joy in giving to their parents and other family members on the holidays , It gives them a sense of pride,and happyness! The school asks that I make sure that it would be something of a non-religious background to all cultures !If anyone has any plans or ideas please send them to me soon december 17th is my deadline. Thank you everyone that took the time to read this !Happy thanks giving!!!!!

Our prayers are with your family.

My heart aches. I miss your participation here at the LJ shop and your kind words – a man of honour and greatly missed by all.

To your family: my thoughts are with you.

-- ~ Debbie, Canada (http://www.execulink.com/~yohan)

My prayers offered for you and those you have left behind. I am too new around here to have known you, but the sense of community this site offers still makes me feel the loss of one of “ours.”

I can truly say that you will be missed…many here counted you as a friend. That can be a rare thing these days.

To the Family, I offer my most sincere condolences. By the way he conducted himself and the things he said, I know in my heart that he is a man of Faith and he is now with the Lord. I can only imagine his joy and the relief from the pain of this world. I am sure he is looking forward to the day that we will all be reunited and share in that joy. Please know if you ever have need of help, all you have to do is ask. I am confident that the members of Lumberjocks will flock to provide any assistance they can. We will keep you in our prayers. I pray that God will provide comfort in these times.

God Bless,
Greg

Wow… I seem to be the last to know. I just found out and there will be a tremendous empty where he used to be, but a brighter place for him in where he’s gone.

We’ve lost a true gentleman and friend. My condolences to Mark’s family. We will miss Mark and his contributions to our craft. May God bless you and your family in this trying time.

Mark, I have no words for the emptiness I feel from your passing. When I would email you to find out how you were, you would ask if I was alright and how did I feel, I had to pull out of you how it was going with you. And then those 4 days before your wife emailed me, I knew something was wrong, then that terrible, awful, news. Although my selfish heart aches from your passing, I know you are in a better place, probably laughing, smiling at us all and saying, “just wait till you get here”.! I know you suffered here on earth and in spite of being in bad health held a job where you were thought of enough to be a supervisor of others.
May your soul and all the souls of the faithfully departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen , I’ll miss you brother..

-- Mike. mwurm13@yahoo.com

It’s a strange feeling I have of not knowing you, yet feeling like I’ve lost a friend. We’ll be seeing you on the other side someday. Rest easy.

-- Bob Vila would be so proud of you!

Mark, you were the first person to welcome me when I signed on here almost a year ago. I just learned if your passing. You will be greatly missed here.

-- Charlie M. "Woodworking - patience = firewood"

-- work from your heart and your spirit will live forever

Mark as you can clearly see, you will be very much missed down here. Condolences and God bless to your loved ones. And as Odie had said earlier, I wish I had known you better, but I did get to know you a little better through all your fellow LJ’s comments above.

Thanks for sharing yourself with us. Miss you buddy.

Mark, Thank you for all your support. Your family should be proud. I am only one of those you have touched with your spirit. There are many others, some that will remember you with wooden toys and hand made projects that they can hold. Then there are us who will remember you from the exchanges we share here on LJ. You have been a great part of all of us here. You will be missed.

Mark your friendship and wam personality has touched so many people’s lives on this Forum. You always had a kind word and were generous with you remarks about works posted on this site. You will be missed by all of us and have left a void here that will not be filled. Godspeed my brother and may the eternal light shine upon you. It’s your turn to pray for us.

-- Bill - "Suit yourself and let the rest be pleased." http://www.cajunpen.com/

Mark, thanks for all you shared with us. We’ll miss you. You’ve welcomed me and most every other member here when we 1st joined. I can only imagine you asking the most famous carpenter of all to “Lets see some woodwork”.

God bless you and your family.

the world is now a lesser place . god bless

Mark,

Any attempt to describe how you and your gentle encouraging words simply will be inadequate.

That said, I and many others owe you an unending debt of gratitude.

Your selfless ways, wouldn’t allow us to repay you anyway, because of your state of humility.

My void ,is only nourished by the thought of all the healing you have delivered to countless others.

You would be embarrassed with all this attention, however deserved it is.

I will respect that, and dwell instead in the eternal thoughts of peace that surrounds you .

I miss you and will bid you goodbye for now.

May your family feel your love and warmth, and there loss be healed.

-- Dusty

You will be missed. And yes, Jesus IS Lord!

-- Dave.

To the family, I offer my most sincere condolences. I only knew you through your projects. They will be remainders of your joy in expressing yourself with wood.

-- Zipsss

I would like to offer my sincere condolences to the family and friends. Mark was one that always had a good word for all on lumberjocks. He will be missed.

-- Max "Desperado", Salt Lake City, UT

To: Everyone
Thank you for the kind words and prayers. Mark loved each and everyone
of you!!! His woodworking gave him such joy!!

-- Jesus is Lord!

Anamaria,

I was shocked and greatly saddened to hear of your loss. Mark was a good man and a true friend to all of us here on Lumberjocks. He will be sorely missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

-- Better to say nothing and be thought the fool... then to speak and erase all doubt.

We were quite shocked by Mark’s unexpected death. We are indeed praying for you and your son, that you might be comforted by the Great Comforter. Mark was a special guy to us, and especially took time to pray and worry over my own daughter during her sickness this year. It takes a special kind of man to worry over a small sick girl that he never met.

We received a wonderful Christmas card from him, with a special note to my daughter, that he sent apparently either the day of, or close to the day he died. Thanks for your note about his death, I am honored that you took the time to send us a note to tell us, before we read it somewhere else. His presence on Lumberjocks will be missed, but I realize it that there a huge difference between what we are feeling to what you and your son are feeling right now. I trust that knowing how much friendship and love he gave a bunch of goofy woodworkers on the internet, and one special 6-year old girl in Kansas, will be a good memory for you to keep of him.

Until we meet in the air,
Mark for the DeCou’s

-- Mark DeCou - American Contemporary Craft Artisan - www.decoustudio.com

May God shower his blessings and comfort upon you and your son at your time of sorrow. I know that the LJ’s community has lost a true friend. Please know that all of us here, are your friends also. Bless you both.
God bless

It seems that I’m one of the last to find out. <sigh>He was one of the first to correspond with me when I first arrived, and was a true inspiration to me. <chuckle> I remember when he and I (as fellow Deep-Southerner’s) were less that sympathetic to a “Yankee’s” lamentations about temperature and humidity changes.

You will be truly missed, my brother in Christ. Jesus is truly Lord, and I’ll see you in the New Jerusalem!

It was a thrill to see Jesus is Lord on your comment on my very first Lumberjocks post, my friend Christy’s casket. Christy went home to be with Jesus Oct 28/07. I know you are there too brother Mark. Your comments and encouragement were much appreciated. I pray for your family at this sad time.

-- Phil Brown, Ontario

Mrs oscorners,
One of the absolute first welcomes I recieved here at Lumberjocks was from your husband. Your husband was always one of the very first to comment on any project I posted, and always with kindness. Always followed with “Jesus is Lord”!
I’m one who enjoyed and needed all these niceities. I’ll miss him immensely,but I know he’s where he’s much happier than ever before. My prayers are for and with you and your family now. I know that the Lord Thy God can and will comfort you in these most arduous times.
I think that the tributes above all have a way of testifying to what a humongus void your husbands passing has created on this forum. Only people of integrity with selfless goodness are capable of this, and your husband exemplified this countless times. Thank you for allowing us to share in your grief.
May God Bless you and your Family,
ken mcGinnis

To Marks Family. I never had the honor to speak with Mark at LJ with not being very active here. Mark must have been a wonderful man from all of the post I have read here. Now that Mark and Jesus are woodworking together in the workshop in the sky may he rest in peace with the Lord. May GOD Bless and comfort you and your son through this hard time.

-- Jesus was a Carpenter too!!!

I want to express my condolences to oscorner family. Mark, you working with the woodcraft master now, in the most heavenly forest.

I’ve been away from the site for a while and was very saddened to learn about the loss of brother Mark. Like many others here Mark was the first to welcome me aboard and always had words of encouragment and creativity to offer.

-- I've cut that board three times and it's still too short!

Words can not express the loss of. Only god knows the plan he will be missed by us all.

-- Sell it here> http://woodworkerslist.com

It is hard to express this loss of our LJ Brother oscorner. So very young.

If it were up to me Martin would put a permanent Green Halo/glow around your picture in the LumberJocks (online), because I know you are here with us.

We miss you Mark!
