The topeka Tornado Wrestling Club was shocked this past weekend in the sudden and untimely loss of one of our wrestling coaches, Mark Perez.

Those that know Mark personally know him as a fun loving, practical joker that was willing to devote time to help young wrestlers in this great sport. He has also devoted countless hours in fund raising efforts for Our Lady Guadelupe Church through the Fiesta Mexicana.

The Topeka Tornado Wrestling Club has created a Mark Perez Memorial Fund to help his family with medical and funeral expenses. Donations can be mailed to:

Mark Perez Memorial Fund
928 SW Frazier
Topeka, KS 66606

I thank you for your time and ask you to keep the Perez family in your prayers.
