Mark had fought a long, valiant 18 month battle with stage IV lung cancer with brain metastasis, never giving up. Mark was employed as Rest Area Coordinator for Easter Seals for the rest areas in Grundy and Marion counties and he loved his position and the people he worked with and missed little work due to the treatments he was receiving at his own insistence.
