Mark had a passion for the waters no matter where it was. Sometimes it was on the ice as a hockey coach or player. He enjoyed the lake cruising and fishing on his boat, and most importantly, his job working at the water plant in Birch Island as plant operator. He had 32 years of loyalty and service under his belt. He shared his humour and laughter everywhere he went. He loved to travel. He loved horse racing and playing poker. He was the king of one liner jokes. He looked forward to visits with the grandchildren and watching their hockey games.
Cherish the moments you shared with him.
Family and friends will gather at Island Funeral Home
