Mark was an active member of the LDS church and enjoyed several church callings. He always cared about others no matter what his own personal circumstances were. Mark had a wonderful sense of humor and could keep everyone laughing. He was an avid motorcycle, sports (and loved his extensive hat collection), and fishing enthusiast-Mark enjoyed life to the fullest. We are very thankful to all those who rendered love and compassionate service to us during this time. All family, ward family members and friends from Questar Gas. You all know who you are!
