As some know, I am the Moderator of the Taps list which sends out announcements of a grad's passing to those signed up. Today it was my unfortunate duty to post the following. Although a number of classmates have signed Harold's online guestbook in the last month, I am only hearing of his passing now.

Stacey's latest update from Mark's CarePages site:
October 11, 2008
Mark has made tremendous progress. From the first days he started with therapy last week to now has been a huge difference. His vision deficit continues to improve everyday and Mark is more like himself everyday. He was even able to start reading to the kids again this week. Exciting times!

The latest update follows:
Posted Sep 24, 2008 9:59am
We made it home safe and sound. Mark has been pretty tired so he is resting quite a bit. He was really happy to see Zack and Zoey and they were excited to see him. They were very careful with him and gave him gentle kisses and hugs. Zack thinks daddy's staples looks like a train track, which I would have to agree. In fact I hope to load some pictures later today so check back later today for those.
The Oncologist at Mayo Clinic are very booked up so we will not be able to move our appointments until next week so we will be going back up tomorrow afternoon to be there for our appointments on Friday.
Our local doctors are still checking into rehab options for us in Dubuque. Our hope is to get started next week with rehab.
Mark looks forward to next Monday, which will be 10 days from the surgery which is the day his staples can come out.
More later...
