Lee High School where he was a Lee Gentlemen. Mark went on to graduate from Baylor University in 1979 with a degree in Finance.

Mark enjoyed spending time with his family and especially his grandkids, who endearingly called him “Pop.” Mark’s love for cooking was enjoyed by so many. His specialties were fried, fresh or off the grill. Mark also had many annual traditions like the family crawfish boil, taking his granddaughter, Emily, to the State Fair of Texas, and cooking a “Man Steak” for his son-in-law, David. Mark and Pam loved the many years they spent traveling in their motor home with their girls and travel buddies, sister Cindy & brother in law John Harper. All those that knew Mark loved him and he will be dearly missed.
