@@shaybatty3785 yes they are... but they can learn his laughs and hear his voice ... it will be hard for them to remember after the years with OUT the videos...now they never will... what a gift
Mark won his battle. Everyday he spent with his children and talked about how amazing they are, he won. Every time he made a loving remark or joke about you, he won. Every new project he under took, he won. Every time he put a smile on his viewers face, he won. This man has raised the bar on dignity so very high , few will reach it. He won at life,. My heart breaks for you, but remember, his RU-vid family is here for you now
He always had a dmile on no matter what he will never be forgot threw yhis channel mark will always be in all of our hearts an an insperation to always see a positive side and to never give up thank you and also 1000% agreed
This would have been every word I would have liked to have said. Now I just add that I am praying a peace that surpasses all understanding for your precious family! InJesus Name!! We love you!!
I just had his video where he decided to stop treatment show up as a suggested video, and I don't know why, but I feel blessed to have happened upon his channel. What an amazing man, he was and still is an inspiration to everyone. God bless you and your family.
I watched a channel called Jenny Apple. She was battling cancer like Mark. She said, "when I die, know I beat cancer because those tumors could not live without me." It made me feel good. I hope it brings a smile to your face hearing that. Best of luck.
IT's 2024 when im seeing this, he seemed like an amazing man. I hope the hurt has lessened., I know how hard it is. You doing this, pure beauty. He beat cancer and at peace. Sending Love from New Jersey.
I'm pretty sure that's not true like at all. His memory is what lives on as much as you accept life you have to accept death, you have to accept that person is never coming back ever. But it does not mean it's a time for sorrow because it's a time for celebration. The celebration of his life. Death does not take, death is necessary to transition into your next life. His spiritual journey has just begun. But what does live on is his memory his essence, it lives on in your mined and in your hearts. Death isn't the end it's the beginning.
Crossover from his brothers channel, Off the Ranch, Demo Ranch etc. Asked everyone to like here to boost it up, and now it looks pretty to the algorithm.
I've just found this channel now, I loved how positive he stayed despite all of the pain he went through. I'm honestly heartbroken and I've only seen two videos of him 😢
Me too... im back again after about year. Im fighting my own demons and watching him be strong and fight somehow makes me feel better. I guess you can say hes my therapy.
I lost my wife of 44 years to cancer.....Have wept, and grieved for 6 years ! I despise death ! It separates loved ones, and is extremely cruel making one ask of GOD why ? So sorrowed for your loss ! Your husband was an amazing person !!!
That happens. Your wife was elderly. My mom was 51 and died from cancer. Mark was much younger than both my mom and your wife. What's going on with so many young ppl dying to this disease? Heaven help us. RIP to all from this terrible disease.
My mom died of cancer in 2021 and my dad died in 2020. It's already been 3 and 4 years, but it doesn't go away. I'm sobbing now watching this, not for me, but for the fact that anyone has to feel this way. I'm so sorry for you, I'm so sorry for the woman in this video, the other man in this comment thread, and everyone else. I'm so sorry, I hope you're happy now. ❤
SIC TRANSIT GLORIA MUNDI Mark was a really lovely guy, he will be sorely missed by everyone. I started watching HE about 3 years ago. My favourite video is when he opened the rations, you always made me happy Mark😥
“When you die, it does not mean that you lose to cancer. You beat cancer by how you live, why you live, and the manner in which you live” -Stuart Scott. Mark won every single day. Being a great father, husband, brother, son & friend. We all love you Mark and your family as our own ❤️
I am so sorry. I send prayers and love to you, the children and the whole family. Mark became so much a part of everyone's life not because of his cancer but because he was such a truly genuinely great person. His videos were some of my favorite to watch and at times the hardest; the cancer diagnosis and stopping treatment. My heart is hurting for your family and I cried watching your final message because Mark became like extended family to me. I will continue to pray for peace for your family. Much LOVE from Wisconsin
Even though it's been 4 years, I just wanted to say my condolences, first of all. Secondly, on a more positive note - I just wanted to say people like Mark show just how beautiful humanity is. The fact that we grieve our losses in such painful ways is merely an indication of how freaking great these people are. If anyone's ever deserved to be in Heaven it's Mark. RIP.
When I see people like Mark, it always reminds me why I became a state assembly man. The money is what matters. Mark was a burden. We do not have Mark to Mark up the world anymore with his pathetic crying and whining. The world is indeed a much better world without whiny snot nose mark. Mark reminds me of the people who give a rats butt about Gov Kristen Noem dog. Who cares Mark is like a 14 th month old puppy. Just take it to a ditch and give the dog what has and should be giving, like Mark
I only came across this Chanel literally 5 minutes ago when Mark’s “SHOW IT” video popped up on my recommended to watch. I am devastated for your loss. Mark seemed like an absolute trooper and is a hero for staying so strong. My prayers are with you guys! RIP Mark ❤️
same here in terms of how I discovered the video. Cancer has never felt so real. I wish I'd found the channel earlier, but have been enjoying looking through them. Bless this community and I so grateful to Mark and his loving wife for making these videos. I'm not religious, bless y'all.
I think you, me and a lot of others will discover this mans journey by accident at this point in time. I'm happy but also sad that I have. I've got a mix of emotions over these videos
Mark gave us more than we gave him. * He showed us joy. * How to live life fully. * How to enjoy every minute. * How to be grateful for what we have in that moment. * How to love others -- like the things he did to make the household duties easier for Laci once he was gone. * Sharing his journey & being truthful in doing so. * He demonstrated how to be a good father & husband * He epitomized love. RIP Mark
"He did as much as he could for as long as he could." What more could you ask for than for a loved one to say that about you? Mark left a legacy that set the example for overcoming adversity.
Mark was the man. Everyone here learned something from him. That’s why we came back. Every day. I’ve never felt like I knew someone I’ve never met. But I think we all felt that way with Mark. Rest In Peace brother.
Just seeing this today 6/18/2024. I saw some of his other videos and what a precious human. I hope you and your children are healing. I'm so sorry but so grateful to be introduced to to Mark on youtube. Hes a beautiful joyful and gracious human.
Ughhh... I remember BAWLING my eyes out watching this the day she posted it.. and im crying my eyes out still today. Rest in paradise Mark. Stay strong Jackie.. you have a beautiful, amazing family. 🙏🏼❤🙏🏼❤
Oh honey.....you were his EVERYTHING and Mark showed us all what it means to be a REAL HUSBAND and FATHER❤️ please let us all know what you need and don’t be shy. We love you and your journey paved the way for a lot of us who were needing his strength through our own journeys. We love you and your kiddos❤️🙏
very well said. Dear Jaci, please don't say you didn't deserve him. On some level none of us, humans, deserves anything. Yet remember he loved you very much and he chose you as his partner for life. We also love you. As Xan Pollaro has said, don't be shy if you need anything. We love you. Hugs, Jaci ♥
Brum,@@xanpollaro3444 please guys. Don't. It's not the right time nor place. I know both of you have the best intentions and you both love Mark and Jaci. We all do use different words to express the very same thing. Hugs to you both. And hugs to Jaci
Krystyna Ch. you are so right. It hit me wrong at a time when my life hangs in the balance and Ai watches his videos and have that same love support around me. I apologize my words offended anyone.
"He smiled," the last and final earthly lesson Mark taught us all. "He smiled," because he saw a glimpse of Heaven and all those who had come to guide him home. "He smiled," because he was painless and free of all disease. "He smiled," knowing he had left everything in order for Jaci and his babies. "He smiled," as his spiritual body reached out to hug and hold all those that came to greet him into the Kingdom of God. Mark, you became the greatest mentor and teacher to all of us here, and all those who will come later. You taught us how to actually live. Love you always brother! 🌬❣❣❣🙏🙏🕊
A beautiful and heartfelt message to Jaci and all the family, Patricia Lynn Moore. You speak on behalf of thousands of us out here who followed and loved Mark Carriker - and all the Family Carriker. xxoo
I just found this channel. He had so much grace and strength through this whole process. I can only hope I have his kind of enthusiasm in the face of darkness. God bless his memory and your entire family
Just found this story and am so sad. I needed to go to bed hours ago but couldn't not watch at least a couple of these videos. Apparently I needed to cry and this certainly made it easy. I am so sorry for her and her family's loss. RIP to him.
Jackie, please, please know that we weren’t just here for Mark, we are all still here for you too. We love you and your family dearly. May God Bless and keep you 🙏🏻🤗❤️
Thanks for saying what I wanted to. I don't watch every video. I haven't been subbed forever but damn man. I really liked his values, the family and the content I did get to. I don't know how much I would give to have a dad like him and a family like that... Have a good day random person of youtube...
To Mark's family: Please know that although most of us will never meet or know you, there were thousands of strangers hoping the best for all of you. And now there are thousands of people who know Mark is okay, but we are all sending our most positive well-wishes towards you. Mark is at peace. It's those who are left behind who must suffer. Best wishes.
Matt those words are perfect. Very well said. I unfortunately just started watching his channel. I've only learned through a few recent videos that he was a solid dude. His family is extremely lucky for having him while they did. Yes they're gonna hurt, but they'll feel his passion for life every once in a while and that will help heal their wounds.
Beautiful, I was going to write something myself, but none of it would have come close to this. We are lifting Mark's entire family up in love and prayers. God bless
Matt Phillips amen 🙏🏼 love to you all. Ive had Mark and y’all on my mind last few days. God bless him. He said he was gonna “party till he couldn’t”. Honey he IS at peace. Praise Jesus he will be watching you and those precious kids. God bless you Jaci. Its never easy. That man loved you and those kids so much. Im so glad he had a quality time with you all while he could. You both made the best of an awful situation. We hope you could pop into say hi and know we all, in our special way, love you and for wish the best life for you. Go on Jaci. You have every one of us to support you. You name it! Don’t hesitate to shout out. God love and bless you and the entire family. “BYIIIIIEEEEE” 💫
I have for the last six months, watched your husband live his life with “grace”. In every sense of that word...that man loved you, his children, and life. It was my honor to see a glimpse of his life. Many people will be praying for you and your beautiful kids. Please know...for now we all join you in your grief for sweet Mark.
Jaqi, A year later and we still feel the loss of Mark. Thinking of you and your family today. I come back often to watch his videos because he still makes me laugh.
@StevenWintery Oh honey, I am so so sorry for you. God made a perfect world. We screwed it up - thank you Adam and Eve. All things work together for good for those who love God, which Mark did. I will pray for you tonight and hope you'll realize the cruelty of your remark and remove it before Mark's sweet family is subjected to it.
@@StevenVinter we need to pray for you Steven to come to the Lord and repent. God has prepared a beautiful, perfect home for Mark. Mark is in the House of the Lord rejoicing.
I’m one that didn’t find him until he had cancer. Just want you to know that the reason I followed was because he represented strength and courage with every single post. He made us stop feeing sorry for ourselves over petty molehills by showing us how he overcame his mountains on a daily basis. He won. Bless you and those beautiful kids.
When you have bad days and feel like you can't handle one more day.. Mark helped you see that you can go another day. Mark was a wonderful man, husband, father, son, brother.. he had a since of humor that would make anyone smile. Your words are 2000% honest and heart felt. No one could have said it better.
Mark passed away on March 19th, 2020. It’s been almost 2 years now. I just hope and pray, that you, Mark’s spouse, has found a way to cope and move on from this. You deserve better than pain. Go find life again…
He smiled because he was finally out of pain and had Jesus there to meet him. You were a good wife to him and he loved you and the kids more than anything. Love and prayers.
@@henrik4740 Why? Just why would you malign someone giving comfort to a grieving wife. You need to consult your heart and discover your own issues. God bless you.
Even if he didn’t have cancer I’d have watched his videos. He is a role model of a man. Even with him having passed: he is still here in memory. Always will be.
man I havent watched yall in years. since I was in high school. To hear about mark and watch all this years later heart is absolutely broken. He lives on with all of us. god bless all of your amazing family so much fun. true hero's for everything, all that your family has done. mark and matt helped me through some tough times. thank you for giving us the opportunity to be shared and a part of yalls life. made the world a better place
OHMYGOSH... THIS CAME UP ON MY FEED AND IT BROKE MY HEART AS MUCH NOW AS IT DID THEN. BLESS YOU YOUNG WOMAN AND BLESS YOUR FAMILY ALSO. BLESS YOUR EXTENDED FAMILY AND MUCH LOVE TO YOU ALL.
Mark's smile makes me think he was seeing God's angels reaching out to him. Mark was a good and strong man. He inspired me with his courage and love for you and your children. I wish there was some way to take away your loss and pain, even a little. Please know you are loved by people you may not know but love you none the less. Thank you for posting today. It took a lot of courage and strength. Prayers, peace, love and hugs for you and family. ❤
I'm sitting here, a grown man, in a shopping mall parking lot balling my eyes out. I'm so sorry for your loss, Mark was a great man, a true role model. All Love and support from here. ❤️
Life is not fair… even though I just found this,I want his wife and children to know, there are still people out here who are learning from and about Mark. I’m so sorry for what they had to go through,but seems he reached a lot of people ! What an amazing person he was. I hope you are the children are doing fine - or as fine as you can from losing such a beautiful person.😪
I just found this channel. What a beautiful tribute to your husband. He was a brave man and a fighter. What a great husband and father, too! May God Almighty continue to bless you and strengthen you.
Mark's love for his family and dedication to ensuring that you were cared for was an inspiration. Our hearts ache for all you. Please know that you are in our prayers daily.
“When you die, it does not mean that you lose to cancer. You beat cancer by how you live, why you live, and the manner in which you live.” -Stuart Scott Rest in Peace Mark. Keep smiling...You won.
I only just found this channel and started watching marks videos not knowing he had passed, what an amazing guy and I’m so sorry for your loss. RIP champion
I believe that people who press the dislike button, are saying they don't like that Mark is no longer with us. I really believe that. God bless this family.
Your husband's decision to share his journey to the public was amazing and heartfelt. His strength of heart and character spoke so much about him. I hope you can somewhat consoled from us strangers who were welcomed into your and his life
My dear, dear Girl, my heart is breaking for you and your children. Also for the rest of your extended family. I was a Firefighter-Medical responder for many years. I saved people. Brought them back. Delivered children. People said I was brave. I was NOT brave. I did my job. My prayers were not enough to help Mark. MARK was BRAVE! He is the epitomy of COURAGE. He is the BRAVEST man I have ever had the honor to watch and respond to. I watched in awe as he posted his videos with pride and love of his family. What a man! What love he showed. It was palpable. I'm so deeply sorry for your loss. I'm so deeply sorry that your heart is in pain. I will continue to pray for you and your children. Mark will always be with you. In your heart, in your thoughts, in the faces of your children. He is part of them and they are part of him. He was a true force of nature and we here, who watched him, were truly blessed to have done so. May God send His Angels to comfort all of you in this time of sadness. God Bless you all.
Amen. As a nurse of 30 years, I have seen way to much yet continue to work and help what I can. What I can't I trust in God. Mark was a beautiful soul, he loved unconditionally that showed in everything he did. You are a hero and so was Mark. Hero's come in many forms. I thank you for what you have done and the many blessings. I thank Mark for showing us all his strength and love.
If you see this Jaci, I hope that you know that we still think of Mark and remember him and his zest for life and his family! We love all of you! God bless you all!
You're such a strong woman, being able to tell his followers about his passing so soon after. - Keep your head high, hug your children.. I dont know either you, your husband or his content.. But one thing is for sure, he is in a better place, and he is damn proud of you! Rest in peace Mark
We saw his journey through his eyes. When you're ready, we'd love to see it through yours. Your strength made his last 18 months possible. I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing him with us.
You are such a sweet lady. I hope you are living your best life as I’m certain he would’ve wanted you to. God what a sweet, sweet woman you are. He was a super lucky man. God bless you. ❤
this video came to me after four years. It's amazing how he dealt with it to the end. i'm sorry for your loss. I know it's been four years. Rest in peace to your warrior husband..
madmagrider Matt as in the veterinarian? I found that guys channel a long time ago and stopped watching him and actually found this channel threw an OperationDrewski video. It’s weird how that works out and leaves me here feeling so emotional over someone I never knew existed until now.
I'm so sorry, honey, Mark really touched the heart of a lot of people, I'm speechless... Thank you very much for let us know, praying for all your family
Mark was a special person! He definitely left his “Mark” on the world and we are all better because of him. My thoughts and prayers are with you, your kids and all your family. See you later Homie!
You are so true... It's impossible not to get better after watching Mark's last videos... Especially now, when the world is facing this challenge.. When a lot of people are going to have limitations, when many people are going to lose their jobs... and a certain number of senior people and people with health issues are going to die... His example is encouraging. He is a really good man. He is really making this world more unified (I'm from Saint Petersburg, Russia)..
I just came across your husbands channel and as a fellow believer in Christ my heart goes out to you. The vulnerability and love and just passion your family have through this channel is evident and I’m sure has helped many people more than you know. I love you guys and am glad he is at peace with Jesus now :) one day we will all be together again ❤
I was a "late-comer" to this channel. But in that short time, I've seen what so many others have about Mark. His faith, attitude and resolve to press on in the midst of one of life's hardest trials. His legacy is an admirable one. Praying for you.
Isn't ir ironic that when we are born, everyone around us laughs but the baby cries bloody murder but when we die, people around us cry a river but the person dying, smiles. What is this thing death that the living can never know?
I'm here February 2022, and just found your channel on recommendation from someone on Common sense with Elizabeth' channel. She has facial cancer too, and, I send my condolences on the loss of your awesome husband Mark. I just found you this morning about 5am when I woke up in pain from my cholangiocarcinoma. I look forward to getting to know your family better through the videos on this channel. HUGS and GOD bless you and your family. 🕊
"He smiled when he passed", it was at that moment he got to see the other side and feel the immense love. I got a glimpse when I had a heart issue. I can guarantee Mark is in extreme joy.
@@BornAgainFarmGirl A year before the experience I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure with a ejection fraction of 30% the cardiologist put me on medication to try and strengthen my heart. After almost a year it didnt move one point. After the experience it jumped up to 40% then a few months later it went up in the 50's% which is in the normal range. The cardiologist is still amazed. 😉
I’m so sorry for your loss. Mark was a wonderful man and I’m so glad that he shared himself with us. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Your video just came up in my feed. I’m so so sorry for your loss. Mark was an incredible courageous man, so inspirational. May he rest in peace. Much love from Oldham, England xxx
I just learned about his passing this morning.😢 I started to cry when I was reading it. So sad! I never met Mark but I always looked forward to his video’s. I knew something happened when I didn’t see some for a few days. Like I said I never met mark but felt he was a good friend and the strongest guy I ever seen. I could never polish his shoes. He really touched my heart and I will forever miss him and his crazy videos. RIP Mark! Fly with the angels. I will miss you! Love you my dear strong friend! May you enjoy Gods paradise and we will all see you soon enough. God bless🙏🏻🙏🏻
A lot of us who didn't know him get so emotional because we can see we have a lot in common and that we should have been friends. Basically we can see ourselves in him. It's strikes home hard. Best wishes to the family. They have his videos forever and that is worth more than any money sum on the planet.
The picture in the background breaks my heart. I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m facing days left with a loved one who has cancer, so I see that your crying but strong. Thank you for sharing this.
My heart froze when I saw the title. I knew I had to find a quiet place to watch this. My heart breaks with so many others that Mark touched. His courage through it all helped me as I face cancer also. He showed us how we should fight, not with whining about poor us, but with stamina saying how mu ch can we accomplish in the time we have. Cancer is not the killer of the spirit but fear is. Mark showed us nothing but strength. The last video he did he was so tired. God speed Mark.
“Cancer is not the killer of spirit but fear is.” Wow amazingly powerful true statement. Well said 10th Leper John. Lost the closest people to me in the last few years. So hard to deal with personally. Im by myself and alone now no family. Take care Sir and RIP Mark 🙏
Mark probably had the strongest character I've ever witnessed. His positivity was mind blowing. Recently, I just found out I had a bladder tumor and am having an operation next Thursday. All I hope is that, if things go south for me, I can be 1/10th the man Mark was. Take comfort in knowing he's just having a blast at a party we haven't been invited to yet. Peace!
Wow sorry you are through this. Hope everything goes well. Keep us posted on how the surgery goes. I will praying for you. Now is the time I think we as a family need to come together and help each other through this. Please update after your surgery to let me know how it goes😚
When your kids miss daddy they will always have all his RU-vid videos to watch. My son in law died. My grand kids will never hear their father's voice. We had lots of pictures but no video with him talking. So these videos may be a source of comfort.
An important message to all of us, K Sib. Thank you. We all need to leave our "faces and voices" for those left to love and miss us, and those who come after them. Thank you for posting.
Adriana M. Ipock Same here. I saw that video and then started scrolling back. I watched his guitar playing video’s which i loved. Then i was scrolling through a couple of comments when i saw “r.i.p.”. So that’s when i checked the newest video and i found this.. Heartbreaking
People, Bless you for your comments. I hope Jaci sees this and finds some comfort in all the love pouring in for Mark, her and her family. Because of you, she and her family may keep this active. A lot of us love Mark and return to these videos for strength in our own lives.
Mark was one of the strongest people I have ever seen. I know this is so hard for you. I just found the channel and wanted to just say how brave you both were during this battle. I hope you and the kids are doing well.
