Mark spent 34 years as a brilliant floral designer. His eye for beauty and creativity shone through his love of creating floral arrangements and through his culinary passions. Mark loved to prepare delicious meals for his family and friends.
His favorite escape was the beach where he felt most peace. He also loved to travel and to camp, always seeking the next adventure.
Mark was a compassionate person who dedicated himself to help care for his mother for many years before her passing. He was a beloved husband, father, son, and friend.
Mark was preceded in death by his parents, Donald and Martha Bell; and his brother, Martin Bell.
He is survived by his loving and devoted wife of 35 years, Valarie Bell; his children, Christopher Bell (Hope) and Jessica Reid (Shaun); grandchildren, Lucas, Mason, Salem, Benjamin, and Bronson; brother, Alan Bell (Brenda); and his beloved dogs, Ripley and Paxton.
