Mark enjoyed spending time with family, eating home cooked meals, and talking to many friends in the garage listening to music, especially the Grateful Dead. He was very proud of all his children. He loved his grandsons and enjoyed them coming over to visit with Papaw. Any stray animal in the neighborhood would make its way to Mark’s ark and he would feed it and nurse it back to health and keep it. Mark cherished all the memories and good times with his family and friends. We reminisced often of past days, simpler times and when people were good to each other. Thoughts of family gathering together on Sundays and spending the afternoon eating, talking and watching kids play. Mark is to be cremated with no formal services. | Chesser, Mark Allen (2375980)
