Mark was unexpectedly taken from us in a tragic car accident on his way home from work, August 3, 2020. He was born April 11, 1989 to Carisia and Michael. Mark was one of four brothers, Anthony, Spencer and Stephen, with whom he shared countless adventures. He was planning to marry the love of his life, Heather, in the fall of 2021 with honeymoon plans to travel across the country in the camper van that they were restoring together.
Being innately gifted with his hands, Mark was a professional mechanic for the City of Jacksonville and selflessly fixed cars and toys for anyone in need. He enjoyed traveling, camping, bringing everyone together, and playing the bongos and drums. As a faithful member of Celebration Church, Mark put Love and God first, which was apparent through his unbounded kindness and regular acts of service. We remember Mark's noble heart and tireless generosity to his family, friends, and even complete strangers. He would want us to love and cherish and care for each other through these difficult times.
