on January 31,1969, and was the son of Richard and Claire Lamar ( Rivard.) He was born with
Down Syndrome and Cerebral Palsy, and a love for professional wrestling and the Boston
Bruins. Mark was a kind and loving man. He could be a bit stubborn, not liking to take
“no” for an answer, especially if you told him you were all out of bananas ( his favorite fruit.)
He loved his caregivers Barbara Pratt and Jennefer Lambert who were family to him. Mark’s
family in South Dakota, is forever grateful to Barbara and Jen for the love and devotion they
have provided him through the many years Mark has lived with them. Mark was predeceased
by his mother Claire and is survived by his father Richard, sister Leila and husband Stephen, nieces
Hannah, Samantha and Rebecca and a nephew Cameron. A Catholic graveside service will be
celebrated at 11:00 am Saturday, October 7th at Mosswood Cemetery. Everyone who loved
and knew Mark is welcome to the home of Barbara Pratt at 148 Starlight Dr., Marstons Mills,
immediately following the service.
