I am extremely saddened to hear that Mark has left us. He faced so many challenges in his life and I admire him greatly. It has been a privilege to know you Mark. Rest in peace buddy.

I remember with love my dear younger brother, Mark Douglas, or MD as I used to call him in my teenage years. Though life brought him many challenges through his disability, he met each day with courage, humour, and a quiet inner strength that was sometimes brave but also, at times, daunting. Over the years, he taught me the importance of resilience and gratitude. I am thankful for the times we shared, especially in our younger years, and you will remain in my heart forever. As Tony said, you were intelligent, well-read, and always great to have a conversation with. Now at peace and free from pain, you can join Mum and Dad.
With love,
Wendy Allan & Tony Brooks

I am so sorry to hear of Mark’s passing. It was an honour to look after Mark on occasion. His intelligence and humour always prevailed and he was a testament to the beautiful loving family he was part of.
My love sincere condolences.
Sue.

I have very fond memories of our time as flatmates at 41 Harvey Street during the mid-1990's. Always so thoughtful and considerate of others.
Mark always remained so positive despite the challenges he faced on a daily basis.
