Default Anybody know what happened to Marxjunk?

I recently read an old post started by Marxjunk. He hasn’t posted since 12/20. Does anybody know if he is OK? He always had some good posts. I miss reading them. I think he was from Saint Louis. We lost a lot of good people to Covid, I hope he wasn’t one of them.

I sent Mark a text in March of '21 to ask how he was doing. His company relocated him to the Nebraska/North Dakota area. It seemed he was spending so much time traveling that he didn't have time for the hobby. I might check with him again Friday, will let you know how he is.

He used to live in the KC area, and I have bought several parts from him in the past. Noticed he has not been on the board in quite awhile.

Condolences on your moms passing. Sometimes life takes a turn. Hobbies are just that hobbies.

Glad you are OK Mark,

Very sorry to hear about your Mom. They are a blessing that is for sure. Don't forget sometimes a hobby helps the healing process, by taking our minds off things that trouble us.

God Bless
Bill

Hey Mark! Great to hear you are alive and well. Miss you on the V8 Buick board. You seemed to have vanished from everywhere online in Dec 2020 and I feared the worst. Stop in there sometime, you were a good guy to bs with!

Good to hear you are well & losing a parent is tough, that's for sure.

Your signature line is classic!

Sorry for your loss.Glad you are ok. I've been going through the grieving also. My faith has helped me. The deeper the love the deeper the grief. We all go through it. I use to think that men dont cry. However I've learned that crying is actually healthy,removes toxins and stimulates endorphins, and helps deal with the loss.
