"He was a ferocious competitor who had a vibrant approach to life. There was no one in the room that commanded more respect than Mark. To say we were proud that he was giving back by becoming a coach would be an understatement. Mark was in his element in the hockey arena and I could think of no better mentor for junior hockey players to have than Mark Cross. He has been taken away from us much, much too soon," Herrington added.
Cross "was one of those people that just made you feel safe and brought a special spark when you were in his presence," his cousin, Graeme Cross, shared on Facebook. "He made you want to be a better person just by being around him. Saying you will greatly missed just isn't enough."
