Mark Hughes Obituary
Born June 3, 1961 in Lewisburg, he was the son of the late Gertrude Hughes Hastings and William Eugene Hughes. He was raised in Lewisburg and attended public schools in Greenbrier County, graduating from Greenbrier East High School in 1979. After graduation, he attended Concord College and then enlisted in the United States Army.
After moving to South Carolina, Mark began work at Herald's Office Supply and also worked in various construction jobs. He was so funny and never met a stranger. He was the life of the party wherever he went. Friends and family members loved to crack jokes and give him a hard time, which he took lovingly, and he gave it back. He had a nickname for everyone.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his stepfather, Sidney "Charlie" Hastings, sister-in-law, Robin Hughes, and nephew, Percy "Andy" Morgan.
He leaves to celebrate his life: son, Dr. Mark Anthony Hugo Hughes, Jr. of Lakeland, FL and daughter, Alexandra LeeAnn Hughes, of Lewisburg, WV; brothers, Darrewll (Toni) Hughes of Lewisburg, WV; Michael Hughes and Derek Hughes, both of Myrtle Beach, SC; and Jeffrey Hughes (Kim) of Charlotte, NC; nieces, Angela Hughes, Tonya Gleaton, Alexis Barfield, and Brooklynn Hughes; nephews, Darrewll Hughes, Jr. (Desiree), Logan Hughes (Lee-Ann), Matthew Walker, Justin Hughes, and Brayden Hughes; great nieces, Kayla Gleaton, Lyric (Cole) Davis, Shaylen Hughes, Sunsarae Hughes, Sheridan Hughes, Samara Hughes, and Teagan Hughes; great nephews; Trysten Hughes, Lucas Hughes, and Nakai Hughes, and his best friends Riddick Skipper and Shawn Stanley.
A memorial service will be held on Saturday, September 9, 2023 at Morgan Funeral Home, Lewisburg, WV. Family will receive visitors beginning at 1:00pm with the memorial service beginning at 2:00pm. Pastor Kathie Holland and Minister Toni Hughes will be presiding.
