Mark R. Lambert

He was born in Sioux City, Iowa on July 20, 1952 but lived in San Diego since infancy, the first of 5 children to Richard and Dorothy Lambert of Lemon Grove. Mark attended St. John of the Cross, St. Augustine and Mt. Miguel High Schools and San Diego State University.

He worked for Nolte NV5 for 32 years as an Engineering Designer/CAD Coordinator. He was an avid member of the NRA, belonged to the Porsche Club of America, Military Vehicle Collector’s Club, South Bay Rod and Gun Club, California Rifle and Pistol Assn., among others.

Mark is survived by his wife of 22 years Marla (Mullaney) Lambert, sister Laurie (Michael) Tilley, Joe (Peggy), Ed (Kerry), and Tom (Debbie) Lambert, as well as many nieces and nephews, his “fur children” Honey and Lucky, and many dear friends. He was preceded in death by parents Richard and Dorothy Lambert and father-in-law Lee Mullaney.

His fun, kind, incredible, way-too-short life will be celebrated Friday September 6 at 11 AM at Lemon Grove United Methodist Church, 3205 Washington Street, Lemon Grove, followed by a reception at the same location and short inurnment ceremony at El Cajon Cemetery, 2080 Dehesa Rd., El Cajon at around 2PM.

Mark had many hobbies and interests, and left us too soon doing something he loved. He would want to be remembered with a smile for the happy man he was.
