Mark had a way of making everyone feel heard. To him there were no small voices in the room, each one commanded his attention. I'm forever grateful to Brunner for the time he gave me in my first year at Shure teaching a know-nothing-20-something about the world of audio. When I was tasked with writing my first NAMM trip report, he took me to each and every hall, introducing me to hundreds of his industry friends along the way. He even called me over at those shows to introduce me to Shelia E and other rock stars I instantly knew I wasn't worthy of meeting. Brunner never missed one of our team outings either - not one. He always showed up, remembered every detail of the last time we spoke, and shared his latest travel adventures with us. Mark, to say you'll be missed is an understatement. I will forever cherish these memories and hope to live life with an ounce of the heart you did. Thank you.
