Mark ( ..May 2020)
One of the most helpful person I’ve met. He offers to help team members, colleagues,
going out of his way to use his time and effort to make someone’s life comfortable.
A walking talking encyclopedia, you can hear him talk about the science behind a thunderstorm, and also about a Beatles song, and how flying a small aircraft is fun!
His love for Dr Who have had many lunch hour discussions covered with details of the seasons and actors.
The grammar police that he was, could easily lead to many discussions of being functionally correct as well as equal importance to being syntactically correct.
Always a team player, he was one of the best managers one could ask for - ensuring that a work life balance for all around him is achieved. He would have everyone’s back - “that’s how its done- we watch out for one another in a team”.
He sometimes used to joke “I'm fun to be around. If I had any friends, you could ask!”
As someone who got to know Mark for a little more than a year, Its been a wonderful experience to work with and get to know him- the approachable team leader and manager, the good friend and a very good human being.
Mark Pfeiffer- you will definitely be missed.
