Mark Henshaw Jr. Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 12, 2025.
Mark R. Henshaw Jr., 35, of Raynham, MA, passed away suddenly on August 8, 2025 after a long, courageous battle with mental illness.

Mark was born on January 24, 1990 in Stoughton, MA. He was the son of Mark Sr. and Terri Henshaw of Raynham. He graduated from Bristol Plymouth Regional Technical School in 2008 and went on to earn a Diploma in Diesel Technology from Baran Institute of Technology in 2009.

In addition to his mother and father, Mark is survived by his son, Mark R. Henshaw III, his loving sisters, Danielle Henshaw and Erica Burton; his brother-in-law Tony Burton, nieces Addison and Ruby Burton; his grandparents, Eleanor and Kenneth Condon; his aunts and uncles, Cheryl and Randall Lucier, Kenneth and Rebecca Condon, Roxann and Robert Mazzoleni, Todd and Lynda Henshaw; dog uncle of Charlotte, many cousins and friends. He is predeceased by his dear grandparents, Raymond Henshaw, Patricia and Lawrence Yablonsky.

Mark was a proud father of Mark III. He is remembered as a loyal family member and friend with an unwavering devotion to those he loved. He was hardworking, and an incredibly talented welder and mechanic. He was able to drive, fix, and fabricate anything. He enjoyed racing at Seekonk Speedway with his dad for many years.

He leaves behind a legacy of strength, loyalty, and quiet love - the kind that doesn't ask for recognition but is felt long after he's gone. We will miss him more than words can say.

Funeral home visiting hours will be held at O'Keefe Wade Funeral Home, 70 Washington Street., Taunton, Ma 02780 on Saturday, August 16th from 12-2 pm, to which relatives and friends are invited. His funeral will be private at the request of the family.

Mark, I'm so sad your no longer here with us, alot of us have just lost a huge piece of our hearts and childhood along with you! You will forever be missed and never forgotten! Some of my favorite memories are in 8th grade, watching you and our friends play football, and going trick or treating every year, riding quads and having pit fires, sleeping in the back of the bronco with a bunch of us, there's so many good times and you were always such a good friend,.always there if anyone needed you. You would literally drop what you were doing, give the shirt off your back!!! May you rest in peace, I love you

Mark I can´t believe you´re gone. I´m in complete shock. You and I were just talking about life and how good you were doing even when life was hard for you. You were one of my best friends in our childhood. And we remained friends throughout our adulthood. You were such a great friend always there to help no matter what it was you were always there. I remember the racing days being in the "pit crew" with your old man at seekonk speedway. The days being in the shop with you at Everett´s. So many memories; anywhere I drive I have some sort of memories with you. You´re no longer suffering. You´re forever at peace. Fly high and continue to be the protector that I´ve always known you to be! You may not be here in physical sense but you´re here in spirit. My prayers and thoughts go out to your son and your family. we will never forget you you´re just not someone who can be forgotten. I´ll be looking for the signs of your presence.
Rest easy Shultzy, I miss ya man!!! Xo
Love you always,
Katelyn Boutiette
