Mark Edward Fiddler

He was a man who found joy in the moments that mattered most—wind on his face riding his Harley, a good conversation about sports, telling a story or putting something on his head to get a laugh, or sitting with family, guitar in hand. Music and family were at the heart of who he was. He shared that passion generously, creating a lasting family bond—one filled with laughter, harmony, and memories that will be cherished for generations.

He and his beloved wife shared a love of God, travel and adventure, often setting out in their RV to visit their children and grandchildren. Those journeys were never just about the destination—they were about time spent together, stories shared, and the deep bonds that defined his life.

Above all, he was a family man. His greatest pride was in the life he built with his wife and the love he passed on to his children and grandchildren. His presence brought comfort, his music brought joy, and his love created a legacy that will continue to live on in every chord strummed and every song sung.

He is survived by his wife of 36 years, Raveena (Deckard) Fiddler, his children Jason and his partner Allysha, NaKita (Atkinson) and her husband Greg, Tyler and his wife Mackenzie, and Clayton and his wife Leticia, along with his eight grandchildren, Noah, Naomi, Elaine, Jackson, Wayde, Jolee, Elias, and Sofia, and step-granddaughter Taylor. He is also survived by his brother, Ronnie Fiddler and his wife Dawn, and predeceased by his parents, Jack and Janet Fiddler, and his brother Michael Fiddler. He leaves behind a family who will forever carry his spirit with them—on the road, in music, and in the moments of laughter where his memory lives strongest.

He will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered.
