He was a wonderful father and a wonderful husband loved everyone deeply and he will be truelly missed. When mark and David would play bingo together it was hilarious with all his side comments. He was a very wise man. There’s so many memories I don’t know where to start. He was sensitive but he was the funniest guy I knew. My thoughts and prayers to my best friend and her family.
On behalf of the Forest Lake American Legion Post 225, we give thanks for Mark’s military service to our country and to veterans as a Legion member and worker.
I worked with Mark for quite a few years at the Post Office. What a great man! Always willing to help out , and always had a funny comment to go with it. He was such a patriotic guy with great love for our country, something I really admired him for. But his greatest love of all was for his wife and daughters. Everyday he had a story and put his little twist on it. What a great ,fun guy. He will truly be missed. My condolences to his family, I’m sure he left a great hole in everyone’s heart. Shelley Taylor
So sad to hear about Marks passing… Eric and I were looking forward to a future “get together”. So glad he was surrounded in Love. He was the nicest neighbor a gal could have. Just a joy to be around. He’ll be missed. #Village ~Joleen (204)
