The Carrikers' sad and lonely first year....

[@dianaf1669]

Dr. Lee.....I left a comment yesterday, but I want to 'add' another one here. I thought about your video all day yesterday. You were heavy on my spirit too. I thought: Look what that man did in his sorrow. He created a video of the anniversary of the worst day of his life. And THEN, he read all the comments left by his subs. Some were marked with the familiar little red heart. But what amazed me most are the ones you took time to reply to. YOU are the one we were trying to 'hold up' on here and yet you, in your bereavement, took the time to comfort others. I just want to say God Bless You for the man you are to others in your life, and here. I have been touched deeply by your actions. I hope you find peace and comfort in the future days, months, years.

[@OutontheRanchwithDrLee-xb4lo]

Thanks for your ever-present and persistent kindness, Diana. I believe you (and all the others here) are my family and have all kinds of things (good and bad) going on in your own lives....yet you take the time to come visit, leave comments, and love one-another. You all deserve all the kindness I can give! Thanks for not only replying twice, but mostly, thanks for always being here with me. Love you!

[@CherylHaurik]

You are so right. God bless you

[@pixandmore437]

Diana, I wholeheartedly agree with you. Dr. Lee shows what it really means to love one another, to think of others and Comfort and lift others up. He is living his Faith. Thank you Dr Lee for being there for others. Dave

[@bettinah.7429]

Perfectly and beautifully said Diana. 💜🙏🏻✝️

[@hazey42206]

Miss his quirky videos... even on his bad days he’d still have a joke to throw into them. Beautiful family

[@chew2elah]

What a beautiful tribute to a bright light that was taken way too early. This really tore me up and I don’t even know any of you. God bless.

[@OutontheRanchwithDrLee-xb4lo]

We're all family, my friend.... all of us! God bless you too!

[@AndyRawls]

Thanks for sharing Dr. Lee! I think of Mark often he really did have a significant impact on me. I’ll never forget him. That picture of him and Jake brought some tears to my eyes.

[@OutontheRanchwithDrLee-xb4lo]

Mark really liked you Andy! Like all of us, he was quite intrigued by your skills! And yes, when I was (tearfully) stringing the content together and found the pic of Jake and Grayson, my poor old heart skipped a few beats.....

[@j33pster14]

I, too, think of Mark often - he was an honest and open person, with love flowing from his heart - I will always remember him for his strength and drive. Thank you for sharing this difficult video - it allows others to see how awesome he was even during difficult times -

[@MrKevins39]

Mark was a great guy, we were all lucky enough to have gotten to know him through KZbin. My thoughts and prayers for you and your family.

[@CCitis]

Love you brother. From another believer, in Canada.

[@andreafromadelaideaustrali4379]

The world is a sadder place for not having the company of Mark William Carriker, RIP much love from down under sir xxx

[@josiahbeam]

I remembered this morning that it had been a whole year. Mark made a lot of people laugh and you could just tell he was a great dad, husband, son, and brother. Thankful that we will see him again in heaven. God bless you all and comfort you.

[@12up4down]

"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain; for the former things are passed away" I always find a comfort in this verse when I'm in pain from losing someone I love.... I hope it can do something for you.

[@OutontheRanchwithDrLee-xb4lo]

It just did...seriously. I really needed that! Thanks brother!

[@DREECE54]

I love this scripture. 🩵

[@sherryrorabaugh3359]

You survived the firsts. The first birthday without him, the first Christmas without him and all the other special occasions that was so important. Whether you got here sideways, on your rear end or on your feet...you made it. It doesn't have to be graceful. But God's grace helped. He's still with you. Look around. Always remember, I love you too!

[@OutontheRanchwithDrLee-xb4lo]

Thanks for those kind words, Sherry!

[@grammiecopper9024]

I thought of Mark throughout the day, I miss him. I know that I'll never forget him...he died on my birthday. This year was my *FIRST* birthday as I lost my Dad to covid in November. It is hard. Dr. Lee, you have a *BEAUTIFUL* family. God Bless you all 💙🙏💙

[@JareddarArt]

How can someone I have never met bring out such emotion? Even as I type this I am fighting back tears. Could it be that Mark touched the lives of everyone even if he didn't meet them through his smile and his laughter? How can one man make me feel so sad knowing that he is gone? My heart goes out to his family, all of them. Rest in Peace Mark and dance with the angels.

[@seratonin7004]

Perhaps that is part of Mark's gift and legacy. What began as a video of a deer and the family dog on Matt's channel eventually led to the myriad of videos this family has uploaded over the years. Through all the shenanigans, love and laughter, an indelible mark has been left on all who've shared part of Mark and the Carricker family's lives and stories.

[@hemplandtx]

Said perfectly.... only I did cry watching all the way through. Dr. Lee, I loved this video as it showed so much joy with Mark and those close with him. His spirit lives on to encourage so many others in their journeys. ❤️

As a mom of a child who passed at the age of 22 from a car accident almost 6years ago, my heart goes out to you're entire family. I can tell you that the days will get easier, but that hole in your hearts will live on. I miss my son every second of every day. You will learn to live a "new normal". I was lost in the "fog" for 3 long years. I wish you and your entire family peace.

[@OutontheRanchwithDrLee-xb4lo]

[@triciaramirez1886]

Tears are flowing for such a beautiful family. Mark and Uncle Floyd are watching over all of y’all. They left this world not by choice but they left their Mark on it! They will continue to live in your hearts and minds and they will be preparing a place for the family. None of us knows what plans God has in store for his children, but trust that He has a plan. Those photos speak of a life time of joy, happiness, craziness, family, and all the while God in in each and everyone of y’all’s hearts. That was a beautiful tribute to 2 awesome men. Missed and never forgotten.❤️

[@robertdeboer815]

I lost my wife to cancer a few months before Mark. I’ve experienced the deep loss and sorrow that comes from an untimely death, but with the love of God, and his grace, I’m moving forward while I honor her legacy.

[@kimnicks8590]

Robert, I am so sorry for the loss of your wife. My husband is terminal from Stomach cancer, it's hard to watch his days dwindle, but he is lucky to be with Jesus soon. This world is crazy sad and hard.

It's been a couple of months since ive been able to check the Doc's channel so i am behind in everything. I sincerely pray for your well being. At least know that you have someone in Australia praying for you and your loved ones also. May our creator, watch over, protect and be with you. Much love and sincere concern and best wishes too you.

[@kathyakamimi4989]

I’m so sorry. I miss seeing Mark so much. He was such a good person, all the way real - through and through. His sense of humor and that laugh were a positive for so many he touched. I miss seeing what he was going to do next. I miss his face and his voice. I miss seeing his wife and beautiful kids. Love and peace to all of the Carriker family. Thank you for sharing Mark.

[@jern75]

Time flies so fast. God bless Mark's soul and your family.

[@jkimm7]

Mark is someone I think about constantly despite having never gotten the chance to meet him. He was so kind and full of life it's hard to think that it's been a year without him. Mark, the world seems a little less bright without you, but I know that you are somewhere better and not in pain. Everyone you knew and everyone who knew you will carry on your memory forever.

[@manofsteel423]

Mark was and still is an inspiration!! You did an awesome job raising him. You should be proud. We are the ones hurting. I bet Mark doesn’t even think about it!! He’s better off than we are!!

My heart goes out to you my brother. I lost my wife of 22 years 10/18/19. I am still grieving. I cannot imagine your loss. One day we will close our eyes and when we open them we will be with our savior. I am pretty sure our loved ones will also be there waiting for us. That is my hope. Always remember we love you Dr Lee.

Dr. Lee, my heart goes out to you and your family. I watched Mark's channel every day, and although I never met him, I grieved when he passed. The only consolation is that he is in a better place, and free from pain. Thanks for sharing your family with us. Much love from LA, CA.

[@karlkascha1261]

Dr. Lee, it doesn't get better with time. You just get acclimated to Mark not being there. I only knew Mark through his Home Made Everything KZbin channel, but I think of him often. He was what everyone would want in a son, brother, neighbor or friend. You should never have to bury a child at any age. Thank you for sharing. God bless 🙏.

I still to this Day go back & watch his videos. I miss his laugh, his dry sense of humor, The way he treated his family, This means so much for us followers to have a glimpse of the Carriker LOVE! xoxoxo

Sometimes I feel silly, missing him so much when I’m just a stranger out here in the world. But...I think anybody with half a heart could feel Mark’s love for his family, his faith, and his determination. Thank you, Dr. Lee, for helping create a man who touched so many lives both through the camera, and away from it. Thank you for sharing. Thinking of all of you, and sending you love. ❤️

I want to say something uplifting and profound, but the words aren't coming today.

There is no closure when you lose someone you love dearly. Mark was well loved and he was so brave throughout his illness.

[@Texas_Stone_Roclimber]

A week ago, it's been 8 years since we lost our oldest son. He was 17 years old. I am convinced there is nothing on this earth worse than losing a child, and knowing there is nothing you could have done to save them. But we know through Christ''s Atonement that we can all be saved. And as a parent who has lost a child, there is no greater joy and comfort than knowing this. The pain and the grief will never go away, But the peace that Christ provides is the greatest comfort anyone can give us. Because it is a sure thing. Words cannot accurately describe what I'm about to attempt to describe, so please bear with me. As fathers, we bare a burden and a responsibility that no one else in the family has. We have a responsibility to remain steadfast in our faith and resolute in our example in times of difficulty. So often the strengths that we exude and the example that we set in having faith in Christ, will power any family through any crisis or calamity. I am 100% sure that your heavenly father is proud of the example you have set for your family. And I am sure you will hear these words from The Father, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

[@MsWDWFAN1]

I couldn't stop reading the comments. The people here are truly family. I have heard that one of the hardest losses is a child. Mark is one special soul and brought so much to so many. It was really special that he shared his journey throughout his illness. It is really hard to believe it has been a year. I believe watching him through his challenge helped me deal with my Mother's cancer and death in August. I'm sure he is watching everything going on and waiting for the reunion with everyone. I couldn't help but cry watching this. We all are so lucky to have been able to know Mark, even if it was only through videos. Thoughts, prayers and love for you and your family.

Also, knowing Mark has gone home to rest eternally - in peace - without pain will help us overcome grief, leaving only loving fond memories and his legacies for all of us to cherish until we all rejoice - joined together in Heaven. I pray God will draw us closer to Him, extending His arms to us - to offer comfort and healing while wiping away our tears.

Mark was special to many of us just because he was Mark. He told a beautiful story without even knowing he was doing it. I will continue to pray for all of you.

A touching remembrance, Dr. Lee. I only "knew" Mark for a short time before his passing, but still felt the pain of this dear man's loss. I can't imagine the pain your family has endured, but his passing has hopefully led each of us to cherish our time here with our loved ones all that much more. Stay strong my brother.

Dr. Lee, I never had kids, but I witnessed a father losing a son. It haunts me to this day. His reaction was so vocal. I bet Mark knew that you loved him, y'all are great family in the end.

Such beautiful memories of a man I learned to respect and love. The moments that he and his family shared with us throughout his journey with cancer is something that will forever be ingrained in my brain. The precious moments that he shared with his KZbin family are something that will go on forever. I know that he sits with God in Heaven watching over his family bursting with pride and patiently awaits the time when they will all be together again. Rest In Peace my friend ☮️💟 Nana

I never met any of you until I came across Homemade Everything. I became an official Homie. Mark brought so much joy, courage and faith. He was incredibly talented and I love his family all. You are at peace with our Lord Mark but you are missed. My prayers and love to Jaci, the children your parents and siblings. ❤️✝️

God bless you Sir. The pain today is the same as it was 6months ago for me. I think it shows how deep we loved and were loved by those that left us. Until we all meet in Heaven, what a glories day that will be.
