My heart aches with all that loved and respected Uncle Mark. Mark wasn't just my uncle; he was a father figure, a guiding light, and a source of unwavering love. The world feels a little dimmer without his presence. His legacy of kindness and strength will live on in all who knew him. Sending my deepest condolences and holding the family close in my thoughts. He was truly a great man and revered by so many.

I remember the first time meeting Marky Mark was Sam and I career day in 1st grade. Came in with his fireman uniform on. I remember all the fun we had at the bonfires at their house. Gonna miss all his life lessons and infinite wisdom he would share if we were doing something that we shouldn’t necessarily do.. I will miss all the stories and good conversations had with Marky Mark. He will truly be missed.

Praying for you all, comfort & strength. Mark was a joy to be with at any stage of life. You always knew he loved & loved deeply.  My favorite memories are going to his home on my bike. He & Uncle Bob would pretend to work on my bike. It made me feel safe & protected. He was always there for me. Love to you all, dear cousins.

I had the honor of working with brother Lt. Woolfolk at fire station 51 for about 4 years. I never once saw him in a bad mood and if you were having a bad day he would always try to cheer you up. You always knew who was in the kitchen when you heard all of the pots clanging around! I also had the honor of attending a few of his bonfires and meeting his wife and son. We will all miss you.

Uncle Mark will be missed dearly. I grew up around him and Aunt Donna sharing so many moments but some of my favorite memories of Uncle Mark growing up were at Heber Springs and being on the lake all day and listening to him play guitar  at night. He was a heck of a skier both on the water and snow. 
As I grew up we would spend time at the house he and Aunt Donna built. The parties and bonfires were fun and holidays extra special. 
I always enjoyed hearing about the ski trips to Colorado and seeing the pictures.  I remember talking to Sam about the most recent and last ski trip with Uncle Mark and how special it was skiing with his dad, knowing this would be the last time. With all my love to Aunt Donna, Sam, Kelsey, Cohen and Brighton. May you find comfort with all the love from friends and family who adored Uncle Mark and will forever love you.

We are sending our most heart felt condolences. May you feel wrapped in love and comfort while you navigate the loss of such a great man. We will be forever thankful for the memories made at Heber Springs, during the annual Fall parties, and the countless family memories that we were fortunate enough to be a part of. We are grateful for knowing such a wonderful man and loving family.  May you rest in eternal peace. 

With All Of Our Love,
Tracey, Jake, and Braeden Foldenauer

I think about all of the times Mamann and I had sleepovers at the Woolfolk household and had the best times. I think of all of the bone fires, Christmas, thanksgiving, and everything else we have done together. We will miss Uncle Mark so so much. One memory I will for sure remember is when Travis proposed at the house on Christmas. I looked at you two, because obviously you guys knew! Such a surprise, extremely special, and it happened at your house. Travis and I love you ❤️ We love and miss you lots. But don’t worry, we’ll take care of Aunt Donna and that’s a forever promise.

Donna I want to send my condolences to you and your family. Uncle Robert would have been so proud of how Mark carried himself throughout his whole life. He was remarkable. His life became complete when he married you and had Sam. What a wonderful legacy. Donna I know it will be tough but someone told me after Johnie died that one day you will look in the mirror and you will smile. We will keep y’all in our prayers and let’s get together sometime. I also want to let you know how much Johnie thought of Mark. The Woolfolk men loved the Fire Department!

Donna (or as I called her growing up "DeeDee") there are no words that could convey my sympathy for you, Sam, Kelsey, Cohen and Brighton, and all of Mark's friends. Having known him since I was 13 years old he was the "big brother" I never had. He is who gave me the nickname "Tune" and called me that my entire life and it stuck! Always looking out for me. He was so soft spoken when sharing a good conversation. I always looked up to him and was so proud of what he accomplished (especially your long marriage and Sam!) At any event ever at y'all's house you both made anyone who came feel welcome. There sure were a lot of good times had at those bond fires. He endured so much at the end, now he can rest and be at peace. You will be forever missed but I know your Dad, Mama and Anne are there with you, take care until all of us who loved you see you again one day in heaven...love you, miss you 🤍🙏🏻✝️🕊️

Mark will deeply missed. I have been friends with Mark and Donna for nearly 50 years. Both Mark and Donna were like second parents to my kids. We had so much fun camping and boating in their boat. Mark was a wonderful friend. Mark plan to see you later. Debbie Burroughs

I've known Mark sense 7th grade in school. Turned out his father was good friends with my uncle, through this we become friends. He was the kind of friend who you might not see for months but when you got together it was like you have seen each other everyday. You can't help but value a friendship like that. Mark was a very competitive person who hated to lose. Once I beat him in pingpong and he gave me a hard time. Next time we met he did the winning. Not only practiced but had bought a table to play on. Knowing Mark and Donna has been a real pleasure in my life.

Mark & Donna welcomed me into the family when I married their nephew, Brandon. It has been the biggest blessing to be a part of such a beautiful family. Mark will be missed, but knowing that all of his family and friends will see him again one day brings comfort.

Prayers to his family, Donna, Sam and his grandkids. Mark loved his family and friends immensely. Loved being surrounded by those he loved. He had a smile that lit up the room. Spent many Thursday nights with him and Donna at Buffalo Wild Wings along with countless fellow firefighters/friends. You will be missed but never forgotten!

Marko we are going to miss playing golf and going to Buffalo’s with you my friend. Thanks for the fond memories. Make us a tee time, we’ll see you there.

Mark was a good friend and a heck of a firefighter. I have a lot of great memories with Mark. Enjoyed all the times at Buffalo Wild Wings and the bonfires. We made quite a few road trips playing in the union golf tournaments. The most remembered one, was the last trip we went to Murfreesboro. It was an open bar bar and he had a few lol. I watched him chase the bar that was about  150 feet long from one end to the other. Then he was standing up against a pole and one of the band members walked by and lowered his sunglasses and told Mark "you shoo are tore up". I will miss you my friend but glad you are not suffering anymore.

Ronnie and I have known Mark since 1973 the year we married.  Mark married my best friend and like a sister since junior high Donna aka mama duck.  The memories that we all have camping, boating, parties, hot tubs   we will always cherish.  Mark always treated me like family. Included me on vacations to Breckenridge and Florida.  I always loved him for being the best and loyal protector and provider for Donna and Sam.  The hardest part about living is when people we love are no longer with us.  We know Mark is with Jesus so it makes it easier, but we really will miss him.  Such a great man.  The best. We are so blessed  to be his friend.   Mark and Donna. The most loving couple I know.  So blessed to be part of your lives.    We love you both.  I’m so sorry my sweet Donna.   Ronnie and Kathy Bryant

As far back as I can remember Mark was the kindest, loving, family oriented man you would ever want to meet. He left the Fire Dept and made it to Baptist East to be with my mom when my dad was dying of cancer. He just was that great of a man to make others feel better and carry the world on his shoulders.  He got to the hospital just in time when my dad passed away. I have told many times how much I appreciated him being there with my mom. Fireman have this special bond whether they are family or just work together. They swoop your whole family up and before you know it they have handled everything. To Donna and Sam I will forever cherish Mark for being there . If there is anything my mom and I condo please do not hesitate to ask. Donna and Sam we love y’all.

My heart aches for Donna, Sam, Kelsey, Cohen and Brighton at Mark's passing.  It's a reminder that life is fragile and time is not promised.
He was my cousin, but I loved him as a brother and friend.  We grew up together and experienced life's pleasures and pains.  I will cherish the memories of our childhood, vacations, playing golf and time spent with family and friends.  Mark had an infectious smile and sense of humor that brightened up all that were lucky to know him. 

Rest in Peace Brother in a place where pain cannot follow.

My sincerest condolences to Donna, Sam, Kelsey, Cohen and Brighton.

Mark was a soft spoken and principled man who cherished his family and friends. His easy going nature and sense of humor made it  hard not to like him. I was blessed to be able to call him friend.

 I will truly miss my friend and golfing buddy. Fair winds and following seas, Mark!

Last week I lost a friend or I should say a brother. He fought a hard battle and he was just tired and God said Mark , let’s go home. As much as I loved my brother, it was painful to watch him waste away. Now I know where he is and he’s looking down on us , but in a new body, all fresh and new. Marko I miss you brother, just save us a tee time up there in heaven. Until we meet again, love you brother , save me a spot!!

Donna your husband and best friend Mark was the best man I have ever known.  He will be missed greatly by me and many others.  His life will continue on through you,  his son and grandchildren.  May you find peace in knowing he is in a wonderful place now and that one day you will join him there.

Marko was a respected and admired fireman. A dedicated and loving husband father grandfather. He always had a smile and kind word. He was just an outstanding human being. We are all better people just from knowing him.  God bless love jojo and cyndi
