Sunday June 29, 2008, I received a phone call from Jesus Claus' Mother to let me know that Mark had left this world to find a better place. After tears shared and stories told Mark's Mom wanted to let me know that so many of us touched Mark in ways most didn't know.
Mark (JC) was always one that loved a great joke and he loved giving them, and Mark staying with his love of outing people, he requested we keep the Rattler going, something I promised I would do and I hope all of the authors of the Rattler will stay on and carry out Mark's wishes.
It seems in the last year I have had to posted too many of our dear friends passing, but this one hits me harder than the rest. Mark was more than my friend, he helped my heart to thaw and made me see love again in the world. I will truly miss him till the end of my days.
I know that Mark will be greatly missed by many, how many of us come to the Rattler with our morning coffee to get a laugh, breaking news, or simply to reflect?
The world is going to seem a bit dimmer, bit sadder without Mark in it, but we must carry on as Mark wished we would, and guys I'm so going to need your help.
Mark, may you find the peace you couldn't in life.

Jesus Claus we will miss your humanity and intelligence. We will miss you.

It's more than difficult to know what to say... Mark is a person that will definately be missed. He was smart, witty and had decent values. Very sorry to you Mystic as he was dear to you. Blessings and comfort to his family.
I remember his encouragement when I was first asked to write for the rattler. He was so kind. He will be missed.
You will be missed in the Mainstream Politics room. May you find the rest and peace that you so well deserve. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.
my condolences to mystic sea maiden, and the family of JC. my heart goes out to them. I wish you peace and love . and always keep the memories of him close to your heart. and he will always be with you.
I didn't know him well but he was always thoughtful and intelligent in conversation. We spoke once about our mutual love for the game Final Fantasy 7. He was cool.
Lone Justice
Our condolences to his family and his girlfriend Mystic . MAY YOU REST IN PEACE

My heart goes out to Marks family, and Mystic and his friends. His wit and intelligence will be missed more than I can say. Mystic we are here for you always and you and his family are in my thoughts and prayers
Mark I knew for 8 years. He and I shared allot of thoughts about how the world would be a better place.
Mark was a classy young man with a huge heart of gold something that I recognized when I first met him. He was pursuing a masters degree in psychology. He was brilliant with his thoughts and words.
I having difficulties in expressing my views for him because he was like a little brother to me very close. I am angry how he left, at the same time I know he is in a peaceful place.
Mark if your listening you made this world a better place. I am going to greatly miss you!
Mark was of Jewish Heritage, from a modest family, he was mild tempered, polite person with allot of wit and charm, with a great vigor for politics. His kindness was something most people wish for.
He always spoke out agaist what he felt was right or wrong!
His nick name was Jesus Clause on paltalk. He had been off and on but like friends we kept in touch.
Something about Mark I think people should know is that is was a gentleman, a scholar a young person with allot of wisdom.
I pray that my friend Mark is in internal happiness.
Mark you are one person I can say will be hard to replace on this earth.
To the family of Mark Shalom / Salaam, in your time of pain I share and only wish the best for you all.
Condolences and tears for a great man.
Mark may be gone from earth but he is the hearts of his friends!
Your big bro
ADAM .... Clean Break
My condolences to JC family. My heart goes out to them. I wish you peace and love .He will always be remembered among friends and The VOO mainstream political room.
Did not know Jesus Claus,but somehow i feel sad reading these news.
My warn condolences to Mystic.
My Dear Jesus Claus:
I still remember when I saw your nickname inside a room 7 years ago...the very first time I got involved in political rooms in paltalk, under another nickname. I never forgot how peculiar it sounded and wondered if you were mocking both Jesus and Santa Claus with your nick...oh my. lol :)
I, then met you and talked to you, got to know you a little bit better , and trust me..to know this right know, knowing how special you were...makes me hurt so much...brings me into so much pain.. :( i feel miserable...perhaps because of your sudden departure, perhaps because we have so much in common, only if you knew all the things i have inside my head now. I will always miss you and remember you. Thank You for every single word.
Rest in Peace now, my friend, until we meet again, Wait for me!!!
I will miss you mark. all the political battles we had about our differant views.
I will also miss the private room chats we had about room buisness matters when you were and admin back in the old days.
see you mark, sooner or later bro.
S_LINK90
My dear Mystic,
Know that i am here in case you need someone to talk to...We will miss him very much!!
Stay strong, dear!
this news is so sad, can't seem to stop crying. JC was a great guy who I had so much fun with, he was smart, and charming, and so level headed, he was uniquely important in my progression into understanding politics. My heartfelt condolensces to his family and all the friends JC collected like charms on a bracelet. I still have a hard time understanding this, he was so smart... this world has suffered a huge loss -- I will always remember him and appreciate him, I'm so sorry this has happened. I can't seem to choose the right words. I'm just sorry he's gone from us.
I hope his mother finds comfort. Myst, April--thank you for telling me.
{{{{~Mark~}}}}
Love ya my friend.

To Mark's family....
My thoughts and blessings are with you all. Realize the many in this world recognized the great value that Mark was as a human being.. the world is somehow less without him here in it with us... he will always be remembered.

To my fellow Palfriends....
I've had a couple of days/nights to carry this tragic news with me, so I "voiced" some of my thoughts and feelings where I knew that few people woud venture... my blog. For any who wish to see, here is the address..... http://intothemindofinsanity.blogspot.com/

From Lord Voo...
I will miss Jesus Claus greatly, and I thank you immensely, Mystic, for informing me. I, too, wish you the best, dear, and I value your friendship.
Thank you.
Well I only new Mark as JC and like Kristana it was the nik that first caught my eye in chat. I didn't know him as well as most of you but he seemed to me to be a very decent guy. I enjoyed verbally sparring with JC and remember calling him a moron many times but I don't feel bad about it because I know he was smart enough to figure out I was just ribbing him.
RIP JC and I hope you passed on knowing the real JC because if you did I will enjoy meeting you in a better place. Mystic time heals all wounds hang in there.

Jesus may you find peace..You will be missed..MisseyMoose
Jesus Claus you were inspiring, intelligent, witty and had a big heart. I don't think you know how you touched my life and the lives of people who knew you. I will miss you alot. My thoughts are with you and the people who loved you.
Mark, our Jesus Claus, I bid you farewell of body though not of spirit. You leave in your passing a trail of caring people touched by your words and insights. You will always be alive and well in the hearts of those who loved you. May your words grow in time to be the butterfly that would shape the mountains themselves. Let us bear your compassions to make a world better tomorrow than it is today. You may have left us in one way but have planted seeds in another. Thank you for having been here to share with us that which you offered.
I'm stunned. Flabbergasted. Horrible to hear this. We were opposites politically but I respected him a great deal. He was witty, informed and an outstanding debater. I'm just stunned...my thoughts and prayers go out to his friends and family.
Don't Cry Tears Unless They Are Smiling
The diamond sparkle of the stars have crafted me in brilliance
I am like a duck gliding just above the lake
I have only gone so far if you look closely, my shadow lingers
That body that you line up to soak with tears cannot see your shudders nor hear your wailing
Take from the bouquet, you spent every cent, and pass around
A flower here and a flower there
To the saddened and wearisome
So that my smile can paste to every face and
Uplift the atmosphere in this place
Let me go with everlasting kisses for my stepping-stone is to deviate
From that flesh
That flesh that bound me
That mind that held me hopeless and unfocused
That heart which was broken, painfully broken and lonesome
Those eyes that could not cry and help me cope
Of the puzzle my life was bestowed
My death is a souvenir to any blessing I might have given
Although I go defeated…
Let me go
Forget your goodbyes and let me go
Sing, clap, and pop every limb and muscle you got with dance
Turn those tears into smiles
Remembrance into laughter
Vitality trance be it because I am alive
The dimensions of time have already molded something new
Accretion, I am just now able to see it through
Accouchement, bring forth the copulation that I might come full circle
Take me to the sky

Although knowing you briefly, I will remember you with a smile JC
jc i will miss you my kindest of brothers i remember when we started the rattler as an answer to vince ferrari and company you have come across my thoughts often in the past couple of years and right now i am going through some stuff and some of our old conversations have been coming to mind. i wish i could have been there for you. GBLP
I first met JC in Dec 04 after I discovered, quite by accident, this amazing room called Mainstream Politics. He was a feisty, articulate, witty fellow who stuck to his guns, often against a room full of detractors and I always admired that quality even if I disagreed with some of his content. Not long after starting the Rattler he surprised me by asking if I would become a contributor. Despite feeling flattered, I declined. We had a number of exchanges over the years and early this year he asked me again if I would like to contribute - he said he was trying to revive the Rattler and thereafter we had many pm discussions on how it could be improved, among other things. It didn't take long before it seemed half the S.I. regulars were cub-reporters for this wacky blog. The revival of his little brain-child was, in fact, an amazing success!
A few weeks ago I began to notice JC had become very silent...an brief day or two on the mic and an occaisional post involving an admin-duty of some sort and then nothing. This past Saturday he began counting down a particularly annoying micbot and I interjected ' jc made a post :o'...it was his first in a long time in my recollection and I guess I wanted him to know I was aware of his unusual absence. And those were my last words to him.
Many 'what ifs' come to mind; a pm, a wisecrack, a direct engagement with him in a topic...missed opportunities as one of 'our own' was invisibly experiencing indescribable pain. It points out the limitations of our community and as well, just how close we become without even realizing it. This tragedy has troubled me deeply but I urge you all to seek out some of JC's writings here. He was a brilliant writer and hypocrisy's worst nightmare and, I'm sure, could have gone on to become a significant author. So he lives on in our blog and in our hearts and I feel a fortunate man to have made his acquaintance. Shalom Mark
This poem has always helped me with a loss:
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush
Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I do not die.
Considered to be written by Mary Elizabeth Frye (1905-2004)
I didn't know JC well, but was shocked and saddened to hear of his passing - he was always compassionate, kind, funny and generous-spirited, one of life's good people. My heart goes out to his family and to Mystic and all his close friends.
Sweetyscot
So sorry to hear about the passing of jesus claus. I knew him only as a chatter but nevertheless it touches my heart to hear of such sadness. Faith or lack of faith is never the issue when something like this happens. Tolerance and compassion for fellow human beings is far more important. May I wish his family and mystic my sympathy and draw strength from all the goodness in the world. Trust me it is there just reach out your hand and grab it. Someone will always stop you from falling if they can. Remember the happy times and dont dwell on the sad ones. May his mind now be at peace and wherever he is he can find peace in his soul. Rest in peace and I am sure his family will find comfort in the good times. Never look back always look forward. Take care mystic
What beautiful poems you've shared Sultry and Catholic Consv.
Also touching and wise words from Adam, Angry Tiger, Mitsuk, Kenowes and Isabella.. the sincere hearts are always the best healers.
Especially Mystic Sea Maiden... I hope you all are okay.. losing Mark is a real loss. Blessings and Love ~ Comfort to you all.
Slink too.... who I know cares about all of us as well.
Rest in peace jc you will be very sadly missed
April, I am speechless.. the website you made is so beautiful and real. Lots of Love for you. Hope you are doing alright.
I can't say that I agreed with JC on much of anything... only occassionally would there be something I could see eye-to-eye with him on. If nothing else, though, I appreciate how he stood his ground, and how he could still get me to consider the other side.
I haven't been in a room with him for a while, but I always thought I'd get a chance to spar with him.
My deepest condolences to all who loved him and called him friend.
*hug*
-David (HuFlungPoo)
Last night Voo & I, & all of us in Mainstream Politics, were wondering, praying this was a rumor, a sick Paltalk joke.
Alas, I came into the room this morning,(which I rarely do)to sadly learn Mark, (nic Jesus Claus)who I fondly called JC, was sadly no longer with us in the flesh.
It's been my pleasure to know Mystic for quite a long time. This morning I'm glad we were able to talk, share pain & tears, and at the same time remember so many of Mark's beautiful qualities, and even laugh together recalling some of Marks comical antics.
Regardless of which side of the issue, what your religion, race, or ethnic background was, Mark was a gentleman, and always kind to me & everyone.
Often in life, I repeat what my dearest Aunt always said during difficult times, "Ours is not to wonder why, ours is but to do and die."
We can not wonder why Mark is no longer with us. Our task in life, while we are here, is to do good deeds,(we Jews call it mitzvahs)& know that some happenings in life; unexpected death, illness, etc., etc. there are no answers as to why they happen.
All the comments indicate, Mark did mitzvahs in life. How many of us knew Mark worked with autistic children?
Mark in life, set an example for us to follow. His spirit shall be with us always.
I send my heartfelt sympathies to Mystic, a very special gal in Marks life, and to his dear family & friends.

Thank you Mystic for letting us know. i sit in Pal Talk almost every day..and feel like I know the Family of people. I am hardly noticed..I enjoyed hearing JC in the rooms. I will miss him. Mystic I know how you must feel..let Time be your friend ..That will be your only Comfort in the days ahead..Remember the good times and learn to smile again. Blessings to JC Family.

My heart goes out to the family and friends of Jesus Claus. Though I did not know him personally, we had talked a lot on PT.
He was always cordial, funny, and entertaining. His intellect was matched by very few, it will be missed as much as he will.
I remember when he was trying to get me to write for the Ratttler. I respectfully declined, but told him I appreciated the offer. Now, I wish I had.
It is times like this that we put politics aside and realize the lost that we all will have as we remember a genuinely good guy.
May you find peace, Mark.
I am saddened to hear that JC has passed. I did not even know he was sick.
I only knew JC via paltalk and the various rooms in social issues where he would visit. His comments and opinions were, in the main, spot on and I could hear myself saying, YUP, I agree with that.
Rest in peace, JC (mark), and be thankful you no longer have to endure paltalk and the various characters, good and bad, stupid and clever, who make paltalk THE most frustrating place to hear/listen to these idiots! (yeah yeah, JC, run on sentence....*G*)
A very intelligent and good man. This is a sad loss for the race as a whole; he may have done so much with his talent for thinking clearly and humanely and putting those thoughts effectively into words. I am shocked and saddened. My sympathy to the family and all that knew him.
My deepest sympathy for everyone's loss. My heart goes out to all of you in this time of sorrow.

May your heart and soul find peace and comfort.
SummerLand Dreaming
by Emma Mavin
I would dance within the Northern Lights
And shine my shadow upon the seas
And fly on scented wings of gold,
Windswept on the summer breeze.
I would fly to the land beyond the seas
Where the North wind cannot blow
With a jewelled casket upon my arm
And the essence of the summer glow.
To that land where neither Pain nor Fear
Has a murky footprint left
Nor Anger shed his borrowed cloak
To weave a path for Death.
Where the Star Queen watches through the night
Her children laugh and play
And covers them with her shining gaze
Until the break of day.
Where the Summer Maid, with golden hair,
Laughs and sings with us
Where all cares are forsaken,
In pleasure wonderous.
Winter does not stalk beneath
Her jewelled eyes that shine
It is summer there for evermore
In the land where lives this heart of mine.
And this is Summerland afar
Where I spent a childhood dreaming
Flying on swift silvered feet
With jewelled brow gleaming.
Long lost it is to me now
Gone back from whence it came
I search through all the clouded skies
'Till I find my land again.
Then will I dance upon the skies
And sail a silver ship
Through seas as yet untravelled
And with waters yet undippt.
One day soon I will find the path
Which Summer trailed before
And follow to its scented shores,
There to live for evermore.

Voo is an atheist. Why did HE pray?
We are here to add what we can to life, And I know Jesus Claus added A LOT to life. He was a great asset to the rooms he was in. I learned a lot from him. May you Rest in PEACE Jesus Claus.

So anonymous are you saying AssignedMod isn't titled to an opinion because it differs from yours?
I personally feel offended by the suggestion of his nic meaning Jesus was a fantasy much like Santa. But that's just my opinion. (Which you'll probably say I have no right to also)
Whether the guy believed in a religion or not isn't any of my business. I personally wouldn't have put anyone's beliefs down like he seemed to do.
Look guys. i see no reason for the lame remarks on this post. if this was 1 of your friends or family members you would not like what was being said.

You both win 1st prize awards for cruelty, hate, stupidity & cowardiness.
To 12:30 PM Anonymous post addressing Jewel 41:
First, take a remedial reading comprehension class! Second, learn to copy & paste, so you don't misquote text.
I DID NOT say, "Voo and I, and the rest of Mainstream prayed ..."
Then you added, "Voo is an atheist. Why did HE pray?"
My exact text was, "Last night Voo & I, & all of us in Mainstream Politics, were wondering, praying this was a rumor, a sick Paltalk joke."
The accurate quote above doesn't specifically say Voo, or name anyone who prayed.
An intelligent reader would understand wondering, praying are words used together in a general manner of speech to imply we were all hoping it was an untrue rumor, & not to mean we were all in actual formal prayer.
However, "wondering, praying" were in fact true words. Many in the room did wonder whether or not it was true or a horrible sick rumor. I did pray, "Please G_d, let it not be true." I don't believe I was alone.
At a time when input should be a positive rememberance of JC, & sympathies sincerely expressed, for you to play semantics, lack comprehension, & misquote at a time of great sorrow for Mystic, JC's family & friends who read this blog, is not only inappropriate, it's callous, petty, thoughtless and portrays you all along with the other two above, as prize idiots who are cowards.
I challenge all 3 of you to reveal which idiots you are.
Jewel 41
PS: Mystic, I'm so sorry this happened. I had to respond and not let this pass.
we search to find lifes meaning unknown, without a silent clue
we strive for reasons to explain our ways, in everything we do
we know not why, or just cant see how simple our lives were meant to be
just close your eyes to see it all lifes meaning lays within
when heart and mind and soul rests with ease, thats when your world
begins

May the nameless, sick, twisted sacks of shit who dared to come here... a post started to show our mourning and love for a friend lost to us, and show your true colors... may you reap that which you sow. I'll meet you bastards in hell.

I am really sorry to hear of the loss of JC. I am really sorry now that I didnt know him after reading all the wonderful and kind comments that people have written about him.To those that I know my deepest sympathy in your loss, remember if he touched your hearts or your minds then he lives on within all of you.
Love,Bellarosa
Very sorry to hear of the untimely loss of JC - it is evident that Mark managed to touch the lives of many, as is reflected in the heartfelt comments displayed here.
My condolences to all who are mourning his passing, especially family and loved ones.
R.I.P Mark, I hope the next journey is brighter.

I cannot fully describe my sadness when I first heard this awful tragic news...
Sunday, February 26, 2006 I first posted here at Jesus request for me to be a contributor.
So many laughs and debates later, so many paltalk chatroom hours later I still find it hard to come to grips thats he's gone. One of the original chatters.
Rest in peace JC mate.

To the anonymous abusive negative posters that had the gall to post such evil tripe.. all I have to say to you is that you are empty, lost, lonely bastards. C.O.W.A.R.D.S
L.O.S.E.R.S
P.S.Y.C.H.O.P.A.T.H.S
It sure sucks for YOU that you lack the ability to feel love, or care for others. To connect with people and love them is an amazing journey, and it feels wonderful. You should try it sometime.
By the way, everyone contemplates suicide, it is sometimes a choice people make to escape a lot of pain, but remember there is help if you are in pain.. please seek it.
There are diseases that we are all vulnerable to and depression is one of them. No one would dare condemn a person from dying from pancreatic cancer or cystic fibrosis, nor should you condemn a person suffering from Major Depression.. it could be you one day.....
I am so very saddened by this news. You will be missed, JC.
May JC's loved ones, family and friends find comfort and peace during this very difficult time.

TO THE AUTHOR OF ANONYMOUS POST AT 9:59 AM WHO WROTE THE FOLLOWING:
<<< Jewel41 said: "Many in the room did wonder whether or not it was true or a horrible sick rumor. I did pray, "Please G_d, let it not be true." I don't believe I was alone."
Jewel if you truly are praying, then I hope your prayers aren't misdirected. If JC was an atheist, you should be praying for the salvation of his soul from burning in Hell for all of eternity. If you are praying Jewel, then you know this to be true from the teachings of the holy bible.>>>
At least the above author quoted me correctly, but he/she belongs in the Stupidity Zoo along with the other cowardly anonymous authors so lacking in reading comprehension and excelling in stupid, callous inappropriate posts regarding JC's sad & tragic premature departure from the world.
It's clear at that time, I was not praying for Mark's soul. I was praying that the sketchy report we heard was not true. No one at the moment knew whether it was true or not. Voo was unsure, hoping it was untrue & asking if any of us had seen JC on that tragic day.
You imply that you are somewhat of a bible scholar. Obviously we believe in two different books. Mine does not teach of an everlasting burning hell. My G_d not only judges the deeds on earth of a soul, but also takes into account, the intent and heart of a soul. There is only one final judge, and it is neither you nor I.
You say, "if" JC was an atheist. You don't know and obviously you don't know all his deeds nor his intent. Even if he was an atheist, YOU are not his judge! I knew JC to be Jewish. You are not to judge, a Christian, Muslim, Atheist or Jew. How dare you!
Never did I participate in this Blog. I came in only to add my respect, & rememberance of JC, & sympathies to those loved ones & friends he left behind. I didn't expect to teach reading comprehension, accurate quotation, appropriate timely behavior, or kindness and compassion to hateful, cowardly anonymous writers in this blog. It's totally disgusting!
The writer says he/she believes in, "burning in Hell for all of eternity." MAYBE the anonymous writer has earned a entry ticket!

Jewel, April, Link and all the others thank you. A couple of you have my phone number, please call me if you see another comment that is not WORTHY of being read,, thank you.
Guys just to let you know JC'c Mom called and wanted to thank you all for your kind comments.
To the total lack of humanity dicks I hate to be the one to tell you, but in fact IP addresses can been seen when you post a comment. And trust me there will be complaints sent to your blogger and google account along with copy of your heartless comments.
This is not the place to act out as the little babies you show yourselves to be.
After this comment I see no choice but to monitor any further comments coming to this post.
How dare you guys not care if JC'c Mom, dad, brothers, niece and other loved ones come here and then they read your stupidity, your little attempt of attention seeking? Does it make you feel like a person of any worth to act like such idiots.
Let me tell you something right now, GOD doesnt like people hurting others and that is EXACTLY what your stupid butts did. YOu hurt people, people in grievance, people that have never not one time did a thing to you.
I hope your GOD can forgive your heartless, cowardly acts ,because I know I am sure in the hell not going to.
Do you like causing pain, is that what your GOD taught you? Did your GOD teach you to be horrible, wretched, soul-less scum?
If so you keep your GOD and may he/she treat you with the same amount of compassion your showed JC's loved ones.

I made a donation to AFSP in memory of Mark. www.afsp.org I was reading the statistics on suicide and over 32,000 people commit suicide every year and every minute someone attempts suicide in the United States. This organization has programs which educate and help families who have lost loved ones. We lost someone very special a week ago who will live on in our hearts and minds forever. Its so hard to understand why things like this happen and thats why it is so important to have organizations that continue to help people so others do not have to experience the pain and loss like we all have with Mark. Mark will always be an inspiration to me and I feel so blessed that he was my friend.

the fact that everyone reacts to the lowlife who inhabit paltalk and this forum gives them the attention they want. what you should do is just delete their moronic comments and stop commenting on their posts. ooops, i guess i just gave them what they wanted, huh? *sigh*
THOSE WHO MOCK AND GET OFF ON THE DEAD, WILL SUFFER THE MOST MISERABLE, HUMILIATING, PATHETIC AND LONGEST PAINFUL DEATH BEYOND THEIR SICK IMAGINATION.

Dear Dreama, (Mystic)
I'm delighted those horrid comments have been removed. I wish we never saw them, but I'm relieved we won't see garbage anymore.
The fact is, 99% of all the comments were sincere and heart felt, and a merit to the wonderful person Mark was, and will be always be remembered as being.
I gave you my phone number. Please feel free to call me anytime, day or night, if you want to chat about any and everything.
With Love,

Hello, My name is Edward Koehler and I was Mark's (JC's) stepfather. My wife and I are very glad for all of the positive posts about our sons life and the wonderful feelings expressed by many of the members of this blog. Melissa and I have copied the posts on this blog and after editing out the rather immature posts (unfortunately some people have not learned that it is better to be silent at times) we intend to have these comments bound into a memorial book for our son. It has been a tough road since June 29th, it will be just as tough ahead for us. We often wondered who and where Mark's friends were, now we know.
I didnt know Jesus Claus i saw him in rooms he seemed like a really nice guy
Rest In Peace
Jesus Claus
btw i think we all know the sicko who was posting the horrible comments
She's just a miserable hateful old woman , with a drinking problem
a real SICKO
Edward & Melissa,
I'm so sorry you saw those horrible post from some very immature people. I was hoping that I got those comments removed before you saw them, please accept my apologizes.
I'm happy that you got to see how most people felt about Mark, he was a wonderful man that touched so many, his wit always a highlight in the world of blogs and paltalk.
I only wish there was more I could have done and I hope this small token of all of our graditude somehow helps.
You know that Mark meant the world to me and there wasn't anything I wouldn't have done for him. I hope that you both know that there is nothing I wouldn't do for you two.
Melissa, after speaking to you I know now where mark got his sweet soul, kindness and compassion from. If only more Mothers were as supportive as you were this world would be a much better place. Thank you so much Melissa for talking with me and sharing.
Ed (hope you don't mind that is what I am used to knowing you by) you are one in a million with the empathy and understand you always had. Mark was lucky to have you as his stepfather.
You have my phone number and you know either one of you can call me anytime, day or night.
Ed & Melissa thank you so much for being as wonderful as you two are.

JC was an paltalk original. A fair dinkum debater who never had an evil bone in his body when he typed and talked on Paltalk. Despite differences he was always willing to listen to all sides. THAT is the hallmark of an intelligent guy.
:( If only he could have let someone know what he was going through NOTHING is worth a precious human life gone to waste...
Sadly missed... typing in sympathy for Marks family.

For the 75th commenter... you are a sorry sack of shit. It is so very easy to judge a dead man, yet bastards like you...with cold, rotting souls, never stand up and do anything of any real value in your lives. All you can do is troll through life like zombies and take glee in the suffering of others. It's ok...go ahead and judge Mark for being in pain, for seeing an unjust world that could be made much better were it not for people like YOU! Just remember....your day of judegment will come...and i'm betting you will be doing much the same as you are now... kneeling on your knees like the coward that you are and begging for your worthless, sorry existence to be sustained. You must be feeling so glorified right now...having made the comments that you made.... without thought to the many who loved/cared, and respected Mark for his efforts and for being, what you sadly must have never gotten the opportunity to know, a genuinely wonderful human being. It must suck to not be as loved as what Mark was.

77th commenter...
FUCK YOU AND YOUR GOD!!! The fact is...Mark WAS starting to get out and take walks, and other things to try and pull out of the depression... it also doesn't take a Ph.D to have the knowledge that depression is an ILLNESS, like the flu, a cold, or genetic illnesses, but since you are a selfish, shallow, yellow streak of vulture shit...you probably don't care enough about anyone else to have done the sort of research that it takes to educate yourself on the suffering of others! The fact is...depression is something that many of the people who suffer from it, will fight with it all throughout their lives. Here are a few more facts that you should know....
1: Over 32,000 people in the United States die by suicide every year. 2: Suicide is fourth leading cause of death for adults between the ages of 18 and 65 years in the U.S., with approximately 26,500 suicides. 3: Ninety percent of all people who die by suicide have a diagnosable psychiatric disorder at the time of their death.
People who commit suicide do so because the level of pain that they are experiencing is greater than their ability to cope. I knew Mark far better than most people in Pal...and as you stated, it IS a chat room, and Mark was not the person that some people believed him to be when he was playing around in those chat rooms. You can call suicide a selfish act all you'd like, but the fact is... unless YOU have ever suffered from a mental illness, you have no fucking clue what a battle it can be to try and make it through each day/night.
And finally...as far as praying for your soul... since you are too much of a coward to give your name, I can't begin to even guess if anyone would give a damn if you died or not. Rather anyone would pray for you or not... I am sure that many would feel sorrow for your loved ones if you suffered an untimely death, or death at any age for that matter. YOU on the other hand...haven't shown one God DAMN ounce of empathy for ANY Mark's friends and loved ones you fucking puke. A christian man you say? Well... from the post i've seen you leave...you are definately a Christian man...since most are hypocritical, selfish, shallow slimes who presume to be better than everyone else and eventually show their true colors. You want to pass the judgement of hell upon another...according to your bible... judge not least ye be judged you bastard. From what I have seen here... it would be a pretty safe bet, that if Mark is in hell, you'll be joining him someday!!
Now...crawl back under the rock you slithered out from you parasite!!!!

IP addy 98.121.88 do you really think you are slick by using ipmf to hide your IP addy?
This is your last warning, the next immature hateful cowardly remark you leave will get you complaints and trust me you never again be able to use that ip cover again.
See I know what you are up to and it isn't going to work.
How can you be such a sad person that you like causing others such pain?
Did you bother reading the comments here, do you not know that JC's family comes here to read these comments and how it helps them feel a small sense of comfort? Also did you know that depression is not only mental, in fact its seems that depression is an imbalance of hormones that are produced and controlled by the brain.
Would you wish this on someone that died of cancer? Well what you are doing here is just as bad if not worst.
How would you feel if your hurtful comments caused another death? The death of a loved one of JC's who's pain is so deep and they are barely holding on and then they come here read your remark and it becomes the straw that broke their back.
Do you think your God would find that to be a desirable trait in one of his children?
Don't you think that God's word was meant for all, including you?
If so then you are saddening your God's heart. You aren't doing unto others, you are judging, you are NOT honoring God and I could list more.
Maybe instead of you coming here to cause pain to those you have never even spoken to, you should read you bible again and pray for understanding from God. For I fear if you continue to hurt others as you have been here you might find yourself in the position you wanted for others.
Mark never put down others he only pointed out ones own silliness in the hope they would see how hurtful they were being and see that God intended for us all to love one another and show compassion to all we touch.
So maybe it isn't Mark you dislike but yourself.
