Mark Luna Obituary
Mark Muniz Luna, 44, went to be with the Lord on August 20, 2009 after losing his battle with cancer. He was a loving son, brother, uncle and friend. He was born on December 8, 1964 in Wiesbaden, Germany. Mark graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School in 1983. He was employed with Eyemasters of America for over 15 years and was currently a General Manager. He was certified with the American Board of Opticianry. Mark took pride in his work and made sure his store was successful. He was a loyal Dallas Cowboys and Spurs fan. You could never talk bad about the Cowboys or he'd make sure to set you straight. He was also a Marvel Super Hero and Star Trek fanatic. Mark was just a kid at heart and was loved by so many people. He is preceded in death by his father, Daniel V. Luna. Mark is survived by his mother, Josephine Luna, his brother, Daniel Luna (Linda White) and sister, Christine Valerio (Arturo Valerio). He is also survived by his niece, Carla Luna and nephews, Andrew and Matthew Valerio and his aunts, Nancy Villarreal, Elva Arellano (Felix), Gloria Muniz; numerous cousins and many friends. The family would like to thank Brian Engberg for being there for Mark when he was in the hospital and for helping the family during this difficult time. Mark made a positive impact on many individuals. Mark will be missed but his memory will be in our hearts forever. Visitation will take place from 5-9:00 p.m. with a rosary to be recited at 7:00 p.m. Sunday, August 23, 2009 at Sunset Northwest Funeral Home Chapel.

Mark will be missed, especially from the high school class of 1983. I went to school with Mark and knew him way back in the Longfellow years! Grew up in the same neighborhood (Globe St). My prayers to Mark and his family, that you seek comfort and strenghth from our almighty Father in Heaven. God Bless.
