Mark Rochon Obituary
With heavy hearts we would like to announce the passing of Mark on Wednesday, August 21, 2024, at the age of 68 years. He is predeceased by his parents, Lucien Rochon and Frances (nee Markovich) Rochon. Mark was the brother to Mary-Lynne Flake (Robert).
Mark leaves behind his best friend Lynn Perrier, of 50 plus years, who advocated for him tirelessly, and his friend Klaus Wucher, who stood by his side and fulfilled all Mark’s wants and wishes.
Mark a.k.a. “Baba” was always a Kirkland Lake boy at heart. He never forgot his roots and his connection to K.L. stayed strong. In Timmins he spent many years working for the Union Gas company as a gas fitter. His final move was to North Bay to be closer to the people that loved him. Mark was a big sports fan, especially hockey. “Those darn Maple Leafs just couldn’t win that cup for you while you were still here”. Mark loved his music. He would always have something playing whenever we were with him. His favourite song was “Freebird” by Lynyrd Skynyrd and he lived his life as a true “freebird”. To quote the first line from that song, “If I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me” our response would be, we will always remember you, you will never be forgotten, and you will forever be in our hearts.
We miss you so much, but we know you are at peace now. We will always love you, Markie, and we hope you are up there having a blast with Roman and Rick, like the good old days.
As per Mark’s wishes, cremation has taken place, and there will not be a service. We will have a celebration of life, in the near future, at the Kirkland Lake cemetery.
If desired, donations to the humane society would be gratefully acknowledged. Online condolences can be made at www.mcguintyfuneralhome.com
