A Tribute for Mark Kersting, Air Force, Honored by Fort Knox Cemetery
Some of us leave a small footprint on the world; Mark left an entire ocean. Our family is forever changed but the legacy that Mark gave his family is forever. Mark, we love you and thank you for the gifts you continue to give us. We keep our head up every day and carry on; some days we fail and some days we make you proud, but we try every day. Love always, DHR/CAC Family
