In a video posted by Mark's daughter, Kenzie, Mark wept as he stated, "I’m the happiest man in the world. Sweet God, I’m so lucky. I can’t believe my parents are alive." 

He added, "I had to make a decision because I got out of my room and went to the door and it was already horrible. I couldn’t breathe. I almost had to go outside and I went back in and got them. I can’t believe I got them but I couldn’t find Hammer."
