Mark is survived by his daughter Rachel, wife Beth, mother Donna, sisters Joanna and Meredith, aunt Sue and cousin Ok Won. He also leaves behind his beloved goddaughter Tasheyana and godson Trenton.
Upon graduating from Catonsville High School, Mark began his career in the concrete-construction industry. He first worked as a finisher for Miller & Long before climbing the ladder at McGuire. Soon after, he went out on his own as an independent contractor. Partnering with his wife, he built and operated Concrete Solutions for over 15 years.
Mark was an avid fisherman and fan of anything on the water. His favorite days were spent on his boat - fishing, cleaning, listening to Ozzy’s Boneyard, and being at the marina. He loved to jet ski, ride rollercoasters, and frequent any restaurant with a good steak. Mark was an avid believer in life beyond earth and spent countless hours researching ancient technologies and extraterrestrial activity. As a kid, he loved to play basketball and ride dirt bikes, was a talented artist, and spent lots of time identifying butterflies with his father Chuck.
