MARK DeBRY Obituary

Mark Lyle DeBry 1959 ~ 2009 Mark Lyle DeBry was born on November 18, 1959 to Charles "Bud" DeBry and Katherine Frkovich in Salt Lake City, Utah. Married Darline M. Beagley on June 21st, 1984 in the Salt Lake Temple. Heaven needed a finely skilled craftsman so Dad was elected on October 30th to pass through the veil to build our mansions there. His handsome, calloused hands showed cherished moments of work, service, and love. Dad loved to build and create works of fine quality. Many have recognized his ability to visualize beautiful creations and actualize their reality for all to enjoy. He lived in the joy of others; especially his family stood foremost in that enjoyment. We all have cherished moments where Dad made his love known individually; whether it was working late hours adding special touches for a friend's project, personalized cards of utmost sincerity, or the daily phone and morning wake-up calls to tell us, "I love you." Dad shared all he had, from his Pepsi to the clothes on his back. Dad's athleticism was seen on the football field or wrestling mat which came in handy with his sons. He could speak fluently on physics or farm animals. Dad was a master teacher by example and showed us how to achieve our goals. In the mountains, he pointed out the rocks, the leaves on the trees, the streams, and the flowers which taught us to enjoy the journey as much as the destination. He took every opportunity to express his love for his wife and children, and at home with us all piled on his bed or the couch, a tear in his eye, he felt he had a "taste of heaven." He had a knack of making little moments big ones. Whether reminiscing about his mission to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, with his boys, or his involvement in the scouts or church callings, he influenced many young men. He lived by cardboard "to do" lists, and served so many unconditionally, whether mom wanted to share him or not. Everyone sought him for their projects because of his talents and contagious sense of humor. Dad owned and operated DeBry Construction but found his dream job this past year as the Emery County Building Inspector which permitted time to fish with his family. In spite of his recent sickness, we had a perfect last day with our Dad, cooking us breakfast and spending the entire day with us being close and eating his favorite foods. This was truly one of God's tender mercies. His legacy is evident in the support received from those whose lives he touched, which are many. Dad is the perfect example of a loving husband, father, friend, son and brother. We will cherish the time we've had, love you, and will miss you dearly until we are reunited. He is survived by his wife Darline M. Beagley DeBry of Ferron; children Garrett L. (Tala) DeBry of Rexburg, ID; Logan G. DeBry of Price; Katherine D. DeBry, Elise A. DeBry, and Mark S. DeBry all of Ferron. He is also survived by his parents: Charles "Bud" and Katherine DeBry of West Valley; and two brothers: Michael C. (Wendy) DeBry of West Valley; and Lawrence S. DeBry of Salt Lake City; and nieces and nephews. Mark was preceded in death by his grandparents John Jacob and Dorothy DeBry, and George and Louise Frkovich. A visitation will be held at the Heritage Funeral Home on Wed. Nov. 4th from 6 - 8 p.m. Services will be held on Thur., Nov. 5th at 11:00 a.m. at the Ferron Stake Center located at 555 S. 400 W. in Ferron, UT. with a viewing to be held at the church from 9:30 - 10:45 a.m. prior to the services. Burial will follow in the Ferron City Cemetery. Funeral services were provided under the care of Heritage Funeral Home in Huntington, UT.

I was Mark's last companion on his mission in Baton Rouge, We had a wonderful time serving together. He was truly a great guy and a wonderful missionary. Until we meet again.

The look on Marks face reflects what was inside the man.

I am so saddened to hear of Mark's passing. We were childhood friends from kindergarten to senior year. He was always kind and thoughtful. And truly a gentleman. I can tell he was blessed with a wonderful wife and family. God bless you all during this very difficult time.

I didn't see Mark or Darlene very often, which is sad considering we live in the same town. What I do remember was his willingness to hire my son, Jake, who was not yet off his mission, to come and work for him when he returned. Mark told me he knew Jake would be a good worker because of who his parents were and because of his choice of friends. This included one of Mark's nephews, Jerry. When I would run into Mark at Maverick's, etc., he always asked about Jake. He'd smile and say, "We had some great times back then and be sure and tell him hi". Mark and Darlene touched my life in a unique way.

Darlene and Kids,

We are so sorry for your loss. The short time that I knew Mark I always remembered his smile and kindness. When the kids would come to Utah to visit their cousins they always talked about how much fun they had with Uncle Mark. Our prayers are with you and the rest of the family while you go through this very difficult time.

Dearest Darlene & extended Family,

Just heard today about Mark's passing. Truly broke my heart! I can still hear Mark singing songs about "His little Darleney Pooh", (continues)
can't take my eyes off of you!(As Darlene rolls her eyes)
Why are you feeling so blue?(Darlene shaking her head)
Just know how much I LOVE YOU!(Darlene smiles)
And whatever he did wrong was forgotten.
I will forever smile when I think of Mark DeBry. Thanks Darlene, for all the long nights we stayed up talking - waiting for Mark to get home from work...a lasting memory I will always cherish. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.

Debry Family, I met Mark (at 15)through his friend in high school Corey Hatch. I was younger than both of them, but they were so good to us. As you get older you look back at the people that made a big impression on you in high school and Mark did me. He was so quick witted, and he made you feel like you were a valuable person. God bless all of you. My prayers are with you. Holli Harmon Bezzant

My dear friend Larry; Bud, Kathy, Darlene and family, Mike $ family. I'm truly sorry for the early departure of Mark. I was lucky to meet him, even if it was just for a few brief hours, but it was enough to like him, he was such a nice, kind, good and humble person. It breaks my heart to see how much you are hurting. God give you the strength and consolation in your hearts to go through this hard times. I couldn't be there in person, but my heart and soul have been with you all these days. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers.

As I sat with my head in my hands at the news I received about Mark my thoughts went out to his family. I can’t imagine the depth of your loss at this time and my thoughts and prayers are with you. Even though I have not seen Mark very much in recent years I can’t get hold of the thought that he has passed on. Sometimes when we think of our parents we only see the person in front of us now, we see the person with demands on them. We see the person with the responsibility of making a living and providing for a family. We sometimes find it hard to visualize them as they were when young and doing the things we have done. To Marks children I can say that he was always steady, responsible, honest and a fine example to look up to. You have every reason to be as proud of your Dad as I am sure he is of you. My favorite memory of Mark was when we were attempting to ride a motor cycle up cemetery hill in Magna up by the C on the mountain. I don’t know if it had ever been done or how many times but I can tell you from our failed attempts that it had never been done riding double. After many crashes and much effort we came up with a plan that at the top where the hill got really steep one of us would jump off and be the pusher. I can tell you that being more in weight I was elected the job of pushing. On our second attempt at this plan we or I should say Mark cleared the top. As he went out of sight over the top I waited for the sound of a crash, it never came so I started climbing up to see what had happened. Mark had left the bike where it landed and jumped over the top of the hill running down to me yelling we did it. And after spitting dirt and many hi fives we got the bike down the hill and on the ride home I realized that he never said I made it, it was always we made it. It was a team effort and he never made me feel any other way. I tell this story for two reasons, one is that as a younger guy he did those things that maybe his kids can’t picture him doing. But I also tell it to show what a quality guy Mark was even at a younger age. To his family I would say if you are ever faced with a situation that needs an answer to a problem, just ask yourself? What would Mark do? What would my Dad do? I don’t think you will ever go wrong. Trust in the lessons that he taught you. I am certain that he has instilled in you guys the same qualities that he had. If Jesus was a carpenter then he certainly gained some good help. The talent level just got a lot better up there.

We miss being among you in the ward in Hunter & miss our visits with you.

My heart goes out to you, may God comfort you during this difficult time.

Dear Bud, Kathy, Mike, and Larry
You have always made me feel like I was part of your family. I am sure that is why I feel like I have lost a brother. Mark always had that mischevious twinkle in his eye and his constant grin would bring a smile to my face. I am grateful that your entire family has been such a good influence in my life. I have learned many things from just being around you. Mark will alway have a special place in my heart. Our Heavenly Father must have had a very special task that needed Mark's attention. Your family will always be in my thoughts and my prays. Call me if I can help in any way.

Love Ya All !!!

Dear Darline and Family
It's with great empathy that Suzanne and I learn of your loss of Mark today. It seems not so long ago we see both of your great smiles when you were renting one of our homes just down the street, when you lived here in Magna. We remember the times we all talked and shared with each other at church. The sadness of knowing your were moving.
Life is short it seems especially when great people are taken away from us so soon with so much to give and share.

There are no words to give you that can compare to the eulogy written in the obiturary, this writing should give your spirit the needed comfort it will require for some time.

We wish you the very best in your life and remember that even if we are miles apart our memories are still right next to you. Our prayers for strength are sent to you and your family at this emotional time in your life and hope that it will help console those who may need it.

Our best to you, Lin and Suzanne Whiting
Magna, Utah

Mr & Mrs Mark Debry and family,
My family and I would like to extend our deepest sympathy to you. I only had the pleasure of meeting Mark once. I want all of the family to know that I could feel the sincerity of the man when we talked and I enjoyed his humor. I also want to extend my sincere thanks to Bud and Kathy for the unconditional love and guidance you extended to my brother lynn in his early years when a role model person is so important to grow into a fine man and a great person. You certainly had a big part in molding him. I also want to thank Mike and Larry for the opportunities to work and learn from them in my working career. I know that your entire family will pull together and be there for one another and cherish the time you had with Mark.

Sincerely,
Guy and Jacque Roberts and family

Darlene, Garrett, Logan, Katherine, Elise, and Mark...

I love you guys very much. I will always cherish the Jackson Hole trip and visting you guys on the farm. You are all amazing and close to my heart. Marky had such a glow, when he walked in a room it lit up. I could listen to him and my dad reminis for hours, it was amazing.Ever since I was little, and I heard he was coming to visit I would get so excited like it was Christmas! When he would visit me at the credit union it was the best part of my day! He made me very happy as well as my family.

I will miss you "Cousin Marky" you were like an uncle to me. I love you!!!

Love, Megan

You were truly one of the best men I have had the privilege of knowing and I am a better person because of you. I love and will miss you. I know you are with our loving Heavenly Father may he take care of you and love you as we have.
"Until we meet again uncle. I LOVE YOU!!"

Sister Darlene,

Many years have passed since shaking hands and saying hi. I just heard of your husbands passing, I'm sorry, I hope he didn't suffer much. His obituary was beautiful. If you can listen to the song "Death Shall Not Destroy My Comfort" by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, I believe the Peace that comes from a righteous life, will fill all of your families hearts. It was Neal A. Maxwell, who said (when dealing with the why questions) , "... what is needed is mortal submission even when their is no immediate divine explanation, thus we are to look forward on the near horizon, while rejoicing in what awaits on the far horizon".

All the Best to you and your loving family. May Father fill you with peace as you contemplate His promises.

A distant / long time ago friend.

Darline and Family,
My heart sank as word of Mark's passing reached me. I felt suddenly that this world would be a little less bright. Yet as I thought on the many memories etched in my mind of his enthusiasm and energy, his smile and laugh, his inventive mind and motivation I realized that what the many miles and many years tried to dim, his death could not and will not. Mark's life is a part of me.

In your deep sorrow and sadness through your every private tear filled moment, as you mourn your tender loss, now and in the days to follow, may the memory of the brightness of his person cheer you, may your family and friends be as sunshine and warmth to cold and cloudy days.

To you, your children, and family please accept our deepest expressions of sympathy.

May you find comfort as the many prayers ascend to a loving Father in Heaven in your behalf.

Dear Darline and Debry Children:

"Our kindness may be the most persuasive argument we have for that which we profess to believe." — President Hinckley

Mark's perfect kindness is absolute evidence of that which he and you believe. Our lives are richer and our understanding and hope so much greater because we know Mark and you, Darline, and your beautiful children. We are privileged to call you our friends.

Mark's example has changed our lives for the better forever. We will miss him. May the Lord bless and comfort you in the light of the Gospel and the warmth of Mark's love. We love you.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

I struggle to find the right words that express my sorrow of having such a great son of our Heavenly Father leave this earth. I will never forget playing football side by side with Mark and in the early years having Bud coach us. Both of these men have had a great impact on my life. One of the greatest qualities that I admired in Mark is the fact that he never gave up. As I read his obituary I saw that he carried that quality with him throughout his life. Darline, Bud, Kathy and family my heart is broken at this moment but my soul finds comfort in Mark's knowledge of the gospel and God's plan for him. I wondered at times how Mark was doing knowing that he lived just over the mountain from us and how many times i was tempted to drop in and say hello as i traveled from Gunnison to Price. I regret now that I feigned my responsiblity to do that. Mark in my eyes was one of the great ones, he will be missed. God Bless you in this time of mourning.

What a beautiful tribute to a wonderful man! I will always think of his contagious laughter and humor, as well as his great love that he shared with everyone. He touched our life deeply.

Our hearts are broken to lose Mark. He has been a big part of so many peoples lives, including ours. I have spent a lot of time on the phone with Mark getting his possitive, upbeat view on how to deal with cancer and all the side effects that come with it. Mark Darline and their family have been sealed together for time and eternity and this seperation will be but a short time. You can feel the love that radiates from this family. They are an example to us all. Thank you Mark for all you have done for me in my life. We will be together again in the not so distant future. Love Mike Beagley

Uncle Mark,
I will never forget the stories we shared driving up and down parleys canyon working on the homes. You have blessed so many lives, I know this because you have blessed mine. You have helped me become a better man, husband, and son. I will miss your "cowboy mustache" your rosie cheeks, and that amazing chuckle when you laughed. You will always be in my mind, heart, and soul.
Until we meet again uncle. I LOVE YOU!!
Love Your Nephew Jeremy DeBry

I heart was absoultely broken this morning as I read of Mark's passing. Mark was truly a wonderful, loving, unselfish person and I feel so blessed to have known him. Darline, please know that my thoughts are with you and your kids. Kathy and Bud I am so sorry for the loss of your son and Larry I know you have lost a wonderful friend and brother. I too know the pain of losing someone in the prime of their life and truly feel the pain you all are going through. May you be comforted by the love of others and especially our Heavenly Father.

Words right now escape me. I went to school with Mark from K-12 and he was always friendly. He worked hard at what ever he set out to do. It hits you in the face at how fragile life truly is as things like this happen. My sincere sympathy to Bud, Kathy, Mike, and Larry and Mark's immediate family. Keep hold of the good times and he will always be with you. God bless.

Our hearts are broken with the passing of Mark. We have both been fighting a battle with cancer and I have spent a lot of time on the phone getting advise and being uplifted by Marks possitive, upbeat attitude. Mark and Darline and their Children are sealed together for Eternity predicated on their faithfullness. I love Mark and Darline and their family and you can feel the love that they have for each other. Mark has touched the life of so many for good, including mine. He has passed the test he was sent here to go through, and we will see him in the not so distant future.

Our deepest sympathy to Mark's family. He is a great man who did all the right things. I think back to all the fun we had playing the game of football. He was an ispiration on and off the field. He taught many of us about giving your all when on the field. I did not realize at the time that would carry over to life in so many ways. I will forever be touched by the entire Debry family. I cannot thank them enough for what they gave me. Bud and Kathy are two of the most loving people on the planet and our hearts go out to them.

I don't know you or your family but I was just looking through the obituaries. You are my age. I can't imagine leaving my family right now. But I just wanted to say what a beautiful tribute this obituary is.I've never read a better one. Wow. I don't understand why God has to take good men like this so early. Hopefully, some day we will understand. God bless your family.
