Mark married Dalaine Barron in November of 1980 and together they raised two daughters, Marlaine and Jayna. Mark and Dalaine were incredibly involved in the lives of their two daughters and spent many hours volunteering with their school and various community charities.

Mark was a kind and giving husband, father, grandfather, son, and brother.  He was loved by all who knew him and would always be ready to lend a hand when needed.

Mark was a life-long Chicago Cubs fan and Dallas Cowboys fan.  And of course, Mark had purple blood flowing for his beloved TCU Horned Frogs.
