Uncle Mark was my Dad's last living sibling. He was so generous, kind, and fun. I will remember all those holidays and summer visits to his cabin. Very good times! He was also preceded in death by his first wife Mary and his brothers and sisters, Della, Mary Lynne (Marilyn), R. Lee (my dad), Clarence Jr (Uncle Red) and Wayne. I love and miss them all! Rest in Peace Uncle Mark! And to the rest of the family, may God comfort us during our time of grief.

Sheryl and family,

I am saddened for your loss, but Mark is now in a grand place. I am sure he will be greatly missed. You are in my thoughts often as we do not see each other often.
Your friend, Deb Emelander

Sheryl and family, you have been in my thoughts and prayers. Although I never met Mark I can tell he was a great man from reading the obit. Just know that he is in a better place now. God will continue to comfort you and give you strength. Sheryl, you will remain as my life-long friend and I hope to see you soon to express my sympathy in person.

My condolences to your family. I never met any of you, but the restaurants & food remain a special memory. Thanks to their creation, you helped me survive months of major morning sickness.  Strange as it may seem, nothing helped but food from Mr Taco. I had healthy babies, who love Mexican food. I wish  I could've shared this wonderful place with all my children. Thank you for everything, and I wish you all peace during this difficult time.

I worked for Mark for many years, and he taught me more about business, and learning how to work, than many years of schooling did. Fitting that the Spartans made it to the Rose Bowl prior to his passing, hope he was able to enjoy that. Thoughts and prayers to Sheryl, & the rest of the family.

Sheryl and family,

  I took care of Mark at the hospital and am so sad to see of his passing. Know that his love and sense of humor shone through in his last days, and the way he spoke of you all showed the depth of his love. My thoughts and prayers are with you. 

"... and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand."

I so miss this place.  Prayers to the family and may God Bless you

You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Andrea,Eric,& Caitlin Cooper

I work for Mark for 16teen years at the Mr.Taco reasturants,starting from a hourly employee to one of his supervisors, he taught me a lot about life,plus gave me my first set of golf clubs, was a very good role model and person...now the LORD will be enjoying his wet burrito reds and nacho supremes!!!

Randy and I will always remember Mark because of sharing our birthdays . Randy will always remember frying taco shell all day  Dec. 7th. Mark also taught a lot in the world of business. We used that knowledge in our restaurants.  Thankyou Mark!  Love to Sheryl and Family.  Love Randy and Terri Nugent

Best food ever.  Miss the restaurants.  Used to visit Frandor store frequently.  I don't remember meeting Mark, but thanks!  To Mark's family, sadness may fill your hearts right now, I hope that your fond memories of your father will sustain you during your grief.

I will never forget the MR TACO meal he prepared for our niece's wedding rehearsal dinner which we took to Indianapolis years ago.  I bought a gift cert at the LCS Auction, and he packed up the goodies and put them in our cooler.   It was marvelous!   Delicious!  And his smile as we thanked him was to remember forever.  Love that man!
