A Great Loss

Mark Sails We are all shocked and saddened by the news of the sudden death of Mark Stinson, MD this week.  Mark was influential in all of our lives and also in the thousands he touched as he selflessly responded to those in need throughout the world.  A great teacher, a visionary in Austere Medicine, a man with great enthusiasm and love.  He taught and uplifted wherever he went.  He will be missed.  His legacy will go on in the hearts of many. 

Our deepest sympathies go out to his brother, his family and those who loved him as a brother. 

As we gather more information we will keep you informed as best we can.

Jim W.
