"My deepest and sincerest sympathy to the Scaletty family. We went to junior high and high school together. He was a great person and friend and I am sorry I didn't stay in touch with him, or the rest of the guys, after high school. I will never forget the time he took me duck hunting. It was an epic adventure and I haven't been duck hunting since. :-) "

"My deepest sympathy to the family and friends for the loss of Mark. He was the insurance agent for my husband and I for well over 30 years. He was always looking out for us, truthful and on the up and up, always in our best interest. Mark and his insurance agency always provided exceptional service, and always there when we needed him. Mark will be greatly missed. "

"I just found out about Mark's passing. Shocked and so very sad for your family. I worked for Mark for 3 years in early 2000's. I remember his sense of humor and his love for his children. I remember sharing stories about kids with him. I also recall his stories about the family dog, Jake. Mark told me a few that really made me laugh. The one about him eating all of Jimmy's Halloween candy and all the wrappers that were found in the yard after the fact really made me laugh. He was a kind great man who will be missed by so many people. I am praying for Mark and all of his family. Lori Frede"

"To Mark's family: you are in our thoughts and prayers! He loved you so much - beamed with pride when he talked about his children! We have known him for years, though casually, but not a moment was without entertainment. Although we haven't seen him in quite some time due to our relocation, we have been saddened to hear of his ailing health. Cheers to the memories of him that will be with you always."
