The greatest loves of Mark’s life was his family. His cherished wife of 43 years, Margaret (Maggie) Heath, met in 1979 and married May 26th 1980.

As Barry grew and started a family of his own, Mark was blessed with 2 grandchildren, Caleb and Landyn Heath. His grandchildren were his world.

Mark stayed busy his entire life, actively running 10k marathons 3 times a week. He played guitar and loved reading and watching Sci-Fi. He rode motorcycles, and visited the Isle of Man for the tourist trophy races. He cheered for his favorite Dallas Cowboys.

Mark is preceded in death by his grandparents, Elsie Payne, George and Ivy Heath; his uncle, Ray Usher; and his mother and father-in-law, Hilda and Charles Dell.
