Mark Brennan Obituary

Mark W. Brennan, born on April 17, 1949, passed away on January 27, 2025. A devoted family man, Mark was known for his heart of gold, always ready to lend a helping hand or offer support to those in need. He was a strong presence in the lives of many, often described as set in his ways and stubborn as a mule, yet these traits only added to the charm that those who knew him cherished.

Mark took great pride in his family, celebrating his proudest accomplishments—his grandchildren and the bonds he forged with his loved ones. He relished the opportunity to spend quality time with them, creating memories that will be fondly remembered by all. His ability to connect with his grandchildren exemplified the love and dedication he held for his family.

In addition to his familial devotion, Mark had a zest for life that was reflected in his hobbies and interests. He thoroughly enjoyed going four-wheeling and riding motorcycles, embracing adventures that brought joy and excitement into his life.

Mark's memorial gathering will be held on February 5, 2025, from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM, followed by a memorial service starting at 6:30 PM, at Newcomer Funeral Home, Southwest Louisville, located at 10304 Dixie Hwy, Louisville, KY 40272.

As we remember Mark W. Brennan, let us celebrate the love he so freely gave, the memories he created, and the impact he made on those fortunate enough to know him. His legacy will remain alive through the stories shared and the hearts touched by his kindness.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Lorena and James Brennan.

He is survived by his children, Chris (Debby) Brennan and Tonnia Brennan, grandchildren, Michael, Levi, Cheyenne, Christopher, Candi and Danny; many great-grandchildren; sisters, Millie and Theresa and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
