Mark McClelland was born in Cassville, Missouri to Gerald McClelland and Oleta Faye Howerton McClelland. He grew up alongside his sister, Peggy Haralson (married to Bill Haralson), and brother Ben McClelland (married to Lisa McClelland), forming bonds that lasted a lifetime.

On June 05, 1981, Mark married the love of his life, Robin Kromas. This year, they celebrated 44 years of marriage- a testament to their deep devotion to one another. Together, they raised two children, Reese McClelland (married to Jacquline McClelland) and Devin Parker (married to Stan Parker).

Mark was a proud grandfather to six beautiful granddaughters- Riley, Kinsey, Ashlynn, Faye, Lielle, and Ruby- who were his greatest joy. His loyal dog, Ryder, was never far from his side.

Mark was a simple country boy at heart who cherished his family and friends. He had a small circle of lifelong buddies- "If you know, you know"- and his life was rich with shared memories and stories.

Following in his father's footsteps, Mark built bridges for a living, working side by side with his dad. We can only imagine the stories he's sharing with "Pop" now.

Mark was truly one of a kind- steadfast, kindhearted, and deeply loved. His legacy will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.

Those who knew Mark will remember his quick wit, easy humor, and the way his genuine laugh could fill a room- often because he was laughing at himself.
