Mark David Wilson passed peacefully at the age of 36 on December 6, 2023 at his home in Phoenix, Arizona. Mark is survived by his husband, Andrew Sales, parents Tom and Linda Wilson, and brothers Shaun (Elizabeth) and Scott (Constance) Wilson, as well as his four nieces and two nephews.
Mark was born in South Bend, Indiana on April 3, 1987 to Tom and Linda Wilson. He graduated from Marian High School in 2005 and went on to work in the health technology space — a career that took him all over the country. From Florida to Washington, Delaware, and his home state of Indiana, Mark made friends and memories everywhere he went.
Mark will be fondly remembered for many admirable traits and hobbies — his nurturing spirit and compassion for all living things (especially plants and animals), his generosity and peace-loving nature, his love for broadway musicals and Celine Dion, and his undying devotion to his husband, Andrew.
Mark will be dearly missed by his entire family and group of friends.
Mark is preceded in death by his maternal and paternal grandparents (Ralph and Dorothy Putz, and Wiletta and Hugh Wilson).
