RUTETZKI, Mark
1958 – 2022
Mark Harrison — It is with deep sadness that the family of Mark Rutetzki announces his sudden passing on July 3rd, 2022, at the age of 64. Predeceased by his parents Harrison and Anna Rutetzki of Kirkland Lake. Forever cherished, remembered and loved by his children Tiffany Rutetzki and April (Bryan) Zerebeski and Paul (Rebecca) Horak. He leaves behind his grandchildren Harrison, Lorna, Charles and Hanz. Mark leaves to mourn his sisters Louise (Shawn) Healey and Carol (Roman) Borowski. Aunts, nephews, nieces and cousins also hold his memory in their hearts. Born on March 6, 1958 in Blind River, Ontario, Mark had many fond memories of growing up in Manitouwadge, Ontario. It was there that his passion for fitness began. Mark was active in all sports, including skiing and skating in winter and swimming, hunting and fishing with his father in summer. He went on to attend college in Ottawa, where he studied law and security. He began working for a short time as a police officer in Kirkland Lake and later an RCMP officer in Quebec. During this time he also developed an interest in bodybuilding that would last decades. He then embarked on a long and successful career in the mining industry. Mark’s experience and knowledge of the milling process led him to work in many parts of the world, such as Mali, the Dominican Republic, Egypt, Burkina Faso and Madagascar. Always one to chase after adventure, Mark spent his time off exploring the locales where he worked, seeing many wonderful sights such as the Great Egyptian Pyramids. After a 25 year career in mining, Mark finally returned home to Kirkland Lake where he spent happy months with his sister, brother-in-law and friends. Mark’s positive and adventurous spirit will always be remembered and treasured by those who knew and loved him. Cremation has taken place and a memorial will be held at a later date.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of RUTETZKI Mark 1958 2022..
