His hobbies provided him with joy and excitement throughout the years. His zest for life was evident in everything he did, and he shared that enthusiasm with his family and friends.

Mark took great pride in his involvement with the Special Olympics, where he not only served as a coach, but actively supported and celebrated the achievements of athletes. His commitment to this cause reflected his compassionate nature and desire to uplift those around him.

Mark was a devoted Christian and a member of Victory Baptist Church in Olathe where he volunteered for anything need to support the cause.

He is survived by his devoted wife, Pamela, and his loving son, Michael, who were central to his life and happiness. Mark's legacy will undoubtedly live on through the love and memories shared with his family and dear friends.
