Please forgive me if I am wrong, but after seeing a post by MarkB3 about his purchase from Corvettes North, I decided to look at buying one from them as well.
I made mention of this post to the salesman I have been working with, Chad, and he said that he got a call from Mark's wife that he passed on Labor Day. He showed me a picture of the car he bought, and it appears to be the same one from his post.

I really hope I am wrong, but I wanted to share that info.

That would be terrible. His last post here was August 30th.

Does anyone have a way to contact him or his wife to verify?

It worked for me to contact a recent friend on CF who passed away. His name was Mike Puzach, ("mpuzach") who was a C6 owner and a C7 owner.

So, I went to Mark's profile page on CF and here's what I found. On his page under the heading social, is an email potential to send to his email add. I did that with Mike and got in touch with his wife when she checked his email and found my email to her.

Very sorry to hear of his passing. You might want to send her also the url for this thread.

Mark and I communicated through the forum for quite a while. We haven't been in contact for some time though. I sent Mark's e-mail address to the op via private message.

Mark was (hopefully is) an expert in competitive clay shooting and is an instructor.

The link is a book Mark wrote.

Hopefully these leads can help.

Default Moved to here. More appropriate.

It sounds like you received a response to the e-mail address Mark gave me.

Although I didn't know him personally we communicated via private messages a number of times. He was a talented guy. Not only his shooting talent but he was a talented mechanic. He restored an earlier generation Corvette (should have looked which generation before I started typing) including paint. He was also a Navy Vette. Submarine crew.

I'm sure sad to hear this. Now that I'm getting up in years I have been loosing way too many friends.

Edit: searched and found this old thread.
