Hi, all. I have no idea how many, if any, Zoners are still on the site that will remember Mark. He started out on here as Mark P, later changed his user name to SouthernPrince. We met on this site as friends in 2010, got together in 2014, married in 2016. I lost him to cancer on November 19, 2017. That day I lost my world. I mourn him, and that I got so little time with him, but am grateful I had him at all. I never dreamed I'd meet my husband on this site of all places. As I say, I don't know as any of those who knew him are still here, but since we did meet here, figured I'd post.

Words are small, but I am sorry for your loss. I am glad you got the time you had with him, though, and hope the joys and memories of those times help carry you through.

Hey, I'm sorry. I'm glad you had true happiness, for a time.
And, my Sister-In-Law and my brother met on a chatline, so I will never doubt any tales of "Love And Marriage Online, Or Through Phonelines."
Hugest hugs to you, and
Blessings In Christ,
Sarah

I don't really know you nor did I know your Mark. But I am really sorry for your loss and hope that You are able to focus on the happy times you had with him. Sounds like you, and he too, was truly blessed.

I'm so sorry, Alicia. We never did get back in touch, and this is the first I'd known of Mark's passing. I'm shocked and saddened, and very sorry for your loss. As a previous poster said, words are small, so very small in cases like this. I've never lost a partner, much less a spouse, but I have lost a brother, and it was sudden, so perhaps I know just a little of how upside-down and backward and altogether wrong this must feel. It's always different from person to person and situation to situation, but my heart hurts knowing that he is gone.

Oh shit Alicia. Okay, I understand what all you did and all that went on.
You finally got married and all you both wished.
Peace now. He'd be happy you posted.
I only spoke to him a bit, but I kept up with your relationship, and it was good.
You'll always have that.
Smile.

O... I'm so stunned I can barely type this. Mark and I were very close friends, in school, but weren't often in touch, over the last few years. I'm so, so sorry, Alicia. I was so happy to hear that you two were able to get married, and this is such a loss. Please get in touch, if you feel up to it, sometime.

I'm so sorry. I saw this on Facebook when it happened. Sending positive vibes
your way. You two really had something, and it appeared to me that you really
struggled to get him the best care you could. Again, my greatest sympathies.

I am so sorry for your loss. It is good to remember the good times, but it is also good to take time to grieve. My heart goes out to you.
