"Purple Out For Mark"
Thursday, December 18
Location: Everywhere
We are nearing the one-year anniversary of the passing of beloved ABC 13 WSET news anchor Mark Spain, who passed away last year from pancreatic cancer, just three weeks after his diagnosis.
Last year, ABC 13 felt incredible support from the entire Lynchburg/Roanoke viewing area as they navigated Mark's cancer battle and then, ultimately, his passing.
To honor his memory and to mark that day, ABC 13 is asking the community to again ‘Purple Out for Mark’ on Thursday, December 18.
That means wearing purple, making purple signs, lighting buildings purple, or doing whatever you can to honor Mark.Â
