Mark "Tony Boloney" as he dubbed himself at SUNY Fredonia will truly be missed by all that were fortunate enough to have known him... starting with his Belushi-like antics in college where I met him and saw first hand his gift to always make people laugh... so many fun memories buddy... just wish I got to see you more often in recent years here on Long Island... I remember when you made the Big Move after graduating driving your red Volvo with a U-Haul trailer and arriving at my sister Bunny's house then renting a room in a house in South Setauket and juggling a few jobs including Sears Hardware till you got on your feet and convinced Downtown Danny Brown to move here as well and got the apartment in Lake Ronkonkoma... I think the memory that sticks in my head the most is when we all returned back to college at Fredonia in early September and a bunch of us ( me, you, Steve Boulger, Brian Green, Chris Grundner, Doug Condon and Rob Greiner) piled into 2 cars and drove down to your parents' beautiful house in Bemus Point on Chauttaqua Lake to go waterskiing where after everyone had a chance to get a few rides in , somehow the tow rope got tangled into the propeller and it took us literally two hours to cut through it all using a small pocket knife that some other boater passing by gave us... it was classic !
I could probably write a book about all the great , fun times... and to this day , just about anytime a Billy Joel song comes on, you come to mind...
To the entire Nunn Family , I am so sorry for your loss... Mark was as good as they come... a huge heart and a true friend... and I'm sure an amazing son, brother and Dad...
