Mark Blowers Obituary
September 4, 2025
Mark C Blowers, age 60, Johnson City, TN, met his Savior face-to-face September 4, 2025, after an 8 year battle with cancer. Mark partnered with his father, Malcolm, in their unique home furnishings store, Main Street Antiques and Mercantile, in Johnson City. Early in his career, Mark was engaged in online sales. He later became president of Jensen Smith, an innovative sports wear company known for its shotgun wash clothing. After closing the Johnson City store in 2015, he returned to online sales. Mark was known for his extensive knowledge of imported antique and Persian rugs, for his ability to create beautiful surroundings when choosing home furnishings, and especially for his ability to relate to people. He will be deeply missed by father, Malcolm, and mother, Sally. He is also survived by brothers Todd and Chad, four nephews and six nieces. Burial in Rochester, NY with services at graveside.

I had many fun memories with Mark. We attended college together at Montreat and lived on the same hall. As you can imagine we were mischievous but managed not to get into any serious trouble. He was full of life and of course always made everybody laugh. He always let me borrow his BMW which was a much cooler car than my Pinto. I hate that he had to struggle with cancer his last eight years, but I know he´s with our Savior now and his struggles are over. It won´t be long now and I´ll see him again in our Fathers House where everything is made right.

Mel and Sally I'm so sorry about Mark. While I haven't talked to him in many years, he and your family played a big part in my life in my teenage years. Mark was a good friend that I have a lot of great memories with. I'll miss him.
