Tribute
Mark passed away early on June 2 in Powell River, BC at the age of 85. He was born in Ituna, Saskatchewan on March 7, 1931 into a large family with 7 brothers and 7 sisters. He was predeceased by brothers Jules, Jack (John), Hank (Henry), and Ray, and sisters Beatrice, Sandy and Blanche. Mark will be missed by his brothers Victor, Leo and Charles, and sisters Ginger, Marcy, Anita and Marcia. He is survived by his wife of 17 years Norine, along with sons Kimball, Dwight, Shaun, Andy and daughter Colette, along with several grandchildren and dozens of nieces and nephews.
Mark spent many years working across western Canada on the country’s railways and various other jobs, before settling in Powell River in 1977 to work at the mill as a carpenter. He loved baseball; both playing it and coaching young players, as well as watching every game he could. Mark was an avid golfer, gardener and handyman, and was well-known for his voice with the Powell River Men’s Choir.
Services will be held at St. David and St. Paul Anglican Church in Powell River, on Friday June 10 at 1:30 PM, with a reception afterward. Please come and share your stories and memories.
