Mark graduated from Del Campo High School, Fair Oaks, CA, in 1972. He lettered  in football and  wrestling. He was the first Del Campo wrestler to go to substate. Continuing his passion for sports, Mark also boxed (1980-1981) for the Hutchinson boxing team.

He retired from Western Foods, Hutchinson, KS, as manager of the vinegar bottling line.  After retirement, Mark was self-employed, focusing on grounds keeping, mowing, trash hauling, and brush clearing.

He enjoyed gardening, canoeing, and riding his bicycle.  Mark was a charter member of the Hutchinson Headwinds Bicycle Club.  He was a simple man, but a caring man, who lived an uncomplicated life, as was evidenced by his unselfishness of being an organ donor.  Mark enjoyed the company of many friends and loved the challenge of a heated debate.
