Mark Batchelor Obituary
Mark Weston Batchelor, 61, passed away in the comfort of his home on Monday, January 24, 2022, surrounded by the love of family and his four beloved dogs, Al, Tootie, Rally, and Sugar. He was born on March 4, 1960, to Travis Weston and Nila June Mays Batchelor in Lake Charles, LA.
Mark loved the outdoors and spent many days and nights hunting and fishing on the river, where he felt most at home. He worked for himself as owner of ABC Painting Company, living life on his own terms until his final days, which he spent at home in the loving care of his niece Michelle Yount, her husband Denny, and their daughter Cheyana.
Left to cherish his memory are his siblings Travis R. Batchelor, Ricky J. Batchelor, Randy W. Batchelor, Jerry M. Batchelor, and Janet L. Shell, as well as multiple nieces, nephews, and great-nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents Nila June Mays Batchelor and Travis Weston Batchelor.

I'm Mark's Brother Randy Batchelor. Recently i flew in to Houston from Luzon, the Philippines where I live and work. It had been a long time since I had seen him,and was eagerly planning to surprise him this weekend,however unfortunately Mark had already passed away and I was heart broken with that news.
Mark and I had both grown up together on a small farm in lebleu Settlement and had so many good memories. Mark was always full of fire,and loved having a good time partying and listening and dancing to Zydeco music and A/C D/C his favorite music.
If you were his brother or friend, he'd have your back 24/7 if not, you'd be in trouble no matter who you were or how tough you was,he'd take a bullet or a punch for you literally. However there was another side of Mark that was so kind,loving and affectionate, Mark would give you his last dollar and the shirt off his back if you needed it. I will miss Mark greatly and hold him close to my heart all the memories we both shared from the days as young boys catching crawfish in the ditches, to the hunting and fishing trips,and partying ourselves to daylight,enjoying what Marked and I loved to do, enjoying life. We will see one another again one day "on
the otherside" this time.❤
