Mark grew up working on cars, dirt biking, riding snowmobiles, camping, and fishing. His passion for these never stopped. Mark had a contagious smile and loved to talk with anyone who he spent time with. He found great joy in the simple things of life. He always had a spotless car, home, and yard.

Kristen will be forever grateful for his unending companionship and love.

Mark and Kristen loved to travel and recently visited Italy, Greece, Malta, Roswell and White Sands New Mexico, Salem and Boston Massachusetts, Durango, and Mesa Verde Colorado. Mark loved working on anything mechanical, and he could fix or build anything. He had a great passion for working on cars, building jeeps, and perfecting the yard. Mark was a friend to everyone; he was so caring and genuinely friendly to anyone he encountered.

He truly enjoyed his time with Intermountain Healthcare. He became good friends with his co-workers, and they were a big part of his life.
