Mark "The Handyman" Braun, 65, of Cedar Point passed away as a result of heart failure on September 11, 2025.
Cremation rites have been accorded. There will be no services. The Hurst Funeral Home in La Salle has been entrusted with his arrangements.
Mark was born in New Bedford, MA on August 20, 1960 to Wayne and Elizabeth (Mustafa) Braun. He enjoyed working with his hands and most recently owned and operated his handman business.
