Mark J. Buzzelli

Dear Buzzelli family and friends, I want to express my sincere condolences for the loss of Mark. He was a great friend, one of mine for the past 30+ years. Though I moved out west many years ago, he remained a friend and we had been in touch recently. He was a kind, gentle person with a lot of love in his heart for his friends, and he gave us the gift of music which I’ll always remember. I received this news with great sadness but his memory will always bring a smile to my face and heart. Fly high friend, I’m know you’re out there looking out over us and we will meet again. ❤️ With love, Carolyn

Mark has been a dear friend of mine for 14 years. We spoke often. I will miss his music,his kindness, his smile,his voice, his humor, his adventurous spirit and stories, and so much more. But most of all, his friendship. He had a beautiful gift to listen and know just what to say for a friend. Although I'll miss him dearly, I take comfort in the fact that he is at peace now. My condolences to all that loved him.

Lisa, John, Laura, Danny, Prayers for answers, peace, comfort, my deepest sympathies on the loss of your youngest Brother. We all met on special occasions over 23 years ago and Aunt Gilda and Uncle Jim's house, friend of your cousin Mary. He so young, the shock for all of you I know is devastating. He was smart and had a great sense of humor. I can only send prayers for all of you, and tell you how sorry I am on Mark's loss.

The youngest member of our neighborhood gang... I have so many wonderful memories of the many, many nights we were all together playing kick the can, 500, ghost in the graveyard~ days spent at Kopp Pool. Mark was very sweet, you can see the kindness in his eyes. My heart goes out to all of you. I am truly sorry for your loss.

I've been friends with Mark since freshman year in high school and we had many adventures and great times together. We would often play guitar together performing at small bars or just on our own showing each other new songs. We also went skiing several times among other things and he was a better skiier than I was. We did so many fun things that I can't list then all. He was a good friend and a kind person. Everybody who knew him will miss him tremendously. My deepest sympathies.

Dear family of Mark I am offering my sincere condolences to all of you. Mark was such a sweet sweet soul. I was shocked of this news and very sad. We were all together the weekend before and had a wonderful time. He introduced us to one of his favorite bands before our concert that night and to his new friends from Minnesota. I was looking forward to his visit to our house in Mn and wanted him to cook me some good food and me cook for him. I wanted him to teach me how to make a good gravy as he put it but we call it sauce lol. He kept joking all weekend I'm with The Schwartz's. He wàs happy n safe all weekend and had a huge smile on his face. Till we meet again Buzz Light Year we will miss you!

When I first mark we immediately clicked . With his smile always kind of a free spirit. Love to play his guitar. That meant so much to him he loved music! We got very close specially after he moved into our apartment. That's when we got so close he was the best friend anyone could ask for. Always there for me and caring deeply for his friends and family. Me Mark and Ryan became ( I made up a lil song) were the 3 best friends that anyone could have were the 3 best friends that anyone could have! Lol he loved it I'll miss his smile and laughter and his sense of humor. I'm am so very blessed to have gotten to know him the real him I truly cared for him just as he was. Wouldn't want to fix him as a person. All tho we all have our demons that we battle. I know how he struggled but I got to say no matter how hard it was or how many times he may of went back to it. I can say I was proud of him Cuz he never gave up no matter how many times he tried to straighten up. And how many failures he still kept a determination to not give up trying to get better! My heart hurts and I can't believe he's truly gone. But his battle is over now. And I pray that he is in a better place and at peace. I love him and will miss him so much! And to the family I know u struggled with him to. And sorry for that and I pray for all of his family for strength and to help all of u get thru this and always remember him for who he really was. My prayers are with and I mourn you tragic loss. God bless everyone. Thank you from melissa and Ryan The 3 best friends that anyone could have! Lol
