    My sincere condolences to all of the Heffernan family for your loss. I played baseball with Mark for a few years in Orangeville as a member of the X-Men fastball team and am glad to have called him my friend. I’ve been in touch with some of the guys on the team over the past few days, but unfortunately not all of us could make arrangements to be at the service this morning. I was glad to be able to attend and see just how much Hef meant to his friends and family. I hope that he rests peacefully – he was a genuinely good soul and will be missed.

    Marg, Ed & family,
    I can’t imagine the extreme shock and sadness you’ve been experiencing these past few days. May your memories of that smiling face, along with the love and prayers of your extended family and friends be some comfort. My sharpest memories of Mark come from the few weeks when you, Marg, babysat my two in Georgetown. Mark was quiet and shy, but his sparkling personality shone brightly. He will be missed.
