My sophomore year of high school, I was having a really hard time. In addition to life, I was really struggling with a set of monologues for my drama class. One day, Mark Lewis was in the theater after giving a presentation in a different class. Mark could see that I was having a rough time, and he offered to help. He stayed for almost an hour after school, watching and critiquing my performance, and afterwards, he looked me right in the eyes, and with his glowing grin, he said "I believe in you." How could he have known that that was exactly what I needed? I feel so incredibly blessed that my life was touched by such a brilliant light. Mark, you are loved and missed beyond measure. My love and condolences to all his friends and family.
