Mark Ridgwell Obituary

Mark Ridgwell, born October 31, 1956 in Slough Berkshire, England passed away on October 21, 2025 at Memorial Hermann The Woodlands after a short, brave battle.

Mark was a beloved son, brother, husband, colleague, and friend. He began his career in the UK with a printing apprenticeship, running a New Age Shop in Cornwall and working in computer sales at Currys in the UK. Upon his immigration to the U.S. in 2003, he eventually settled into employment at Lone Star College. His professional journey was marked by a blend of creativity and technical acumen.

A passionate creator of digital music, Mark adored classic rock, world music, science fiction, computer technology, travel, cruising, and virtual reality. Mark was also known for his distinctive style, often seen wearing Hawaiian shirts.

His humor, often reflective of his English roots, brought a unique flavor to his interactions, sometimes mystifying but always endearing to those around him.

Mark will be remembered for his wit, kindness and his wide-ranging passions that made him wonderfully unique. He is deeply loved and will be missed.
