This is very sad news. I met Mark at the same time I first met Tony in
person up at the Catskills Bamboo Rodmakers gathering in  Roscoe, NY. Mark
was a very warm and open person and he and Misa invited Tony and I over to
their house before we left town. We got a tour of their very impressive
tying room. They had more hooks than Bass Pro Shops. And not just any
hooks, thousands of very nice salmon hooks. I know Mark was known for
rubbing a few people the wrong way, but he was nothing but kind to me. I
didn't get to spend much time with him at the last Sowbug, but I am glad I
stopped by his station when he had a few slow minutes and got to talk for a
bit. My thoughts and prayers are with Misa.
