He is survived by son, James Fahley; daughter, Sondra Olson; former partner, Tamara Paron; brother, Scott Fahley, and sister, Darcy Williams.
Mark was born in Minneapolis to Jerome and Laura Fahley. Always artistic, Mark could be caught drawing at a young age. Later, he parlayed his talents into a career in drafting and an avocation for painting artworks. Mark enjoyed drafting, took pride in his work, and continued to work as long as he was able.
Mark generously shared his paintings with friends and family, and recently, with a renewed surge of interest, began preparing new works for local markets, with the inspiration and support of one of his caregivers. His apartment in Jordan became a bustle of canvas, frames, and paint.
For some years, Mark and his family resided at their home on the lake in Ham Lake. In recent years, Mark moved into an apartment at Valley View of Jordan, where he found a new community of friends and dedicated support staff on which to build his life in a new home.
A service for Mark will be held at Sunset Memorial Chapel, 2250 St. Anthony Blvd, St. Anthony, MN on Monday, April 29th, beginning with visitation at 10:00 a.m, and a service at 11:00 a.m.
