Mark S. Weir

75, passed away on Sunday, April 3rd surrounded by his family. He was preceded in death by his father, Warren Thomas Weir, and mother Sarah Jane Weir. Mark was a man with many interests and passions. He loved traveling with his wife, frequenting national parks, historic sites, and most importantly baseball games. Mark was a romantic baseball lover, and he and Marilyn visited all 30 major league baseball parks over the years. He taught his son Wesley how to play the game and coached his baseball teams up until high school. Mark was a nature enthusiast, enjoying walks with Marilyn at Eagle Creek Park and Newfields in Indianapolis and sunset beach walks near their home in Fort Myers, FL. He had an appreciation for the arts as a member of the Indianapolis Museum of Art and Eiteljorg Museum, and enjoyed attending Indianapolis Repertory Theatre and Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra performances among others, over the years. Dinner at The Jazz Kitchen with friends and family was always a highlight.

During Mark's career in Finance and Non Profit in Indianapolis, he was an active volunteer in his community. He served on the boards of Training Inc. and College Mentors for Kids while actively participating in their programs. As a member of Rotary Club of Indianapolis, he worked with the Rotary Foundation Scholarship program, which sponsored several students in graduate programs overseas. He was a proud designee as a Paul Harris Fellow of Rotary International.

Mark was a 1964 graduate of Indiana University High School in Bloomington, Indiana. He received a BS in Business from Indiana University and was especially proud of the MS in Adult Education he earned from Indiana University as an adult student. He served as an Intelligence Analyst with the U.S. Army in Fort Holabird, MD.

He is survived by his wife, Marilyn McCombs, son Wesley (Kelsey), brother Tom (Jan), sister Beth (John) Tilson and many other family members and friends who were lucky enough to know him.
