Love Muffin Mark Challis GENEROUS SPIRIT •• GENTLE SOUL •• GREAT HEART •• God gave you to us as a gift -- after, against all odds, you survived a painful skull surgery as a tiny baby. Throughout your life, you kept surviving through circumstances often too difficult for most human beings to bear. We so desperately wish we had even more treasured moments with you. Your smile made others want to smile along with you. You were loved by all. Your patience was unmatched. Your hugs offered instant comfort. Your intelligence was awing. Your graciousness toward others was inspirational. Your voice was soft as angel's wings. You touched so many lives, baby. You are desperately missed -- as brother, son, husband, father. Love you always, Dawn Love Muffin Mark David Challis Born August 4, 1964 Instant joy to so many Bethesda, MD Passed Away Way too soon, Passed Away January 21, 2000 Manhattan, NY USA Cemetery Memorial headstone in Cornwall Baptist Cemetery Cornwall, NY Memorial Gardens
