It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Mark on Sunday, May 12, 2019 at his home at the age of 43. Mark was the beloved husband to Kimberly Nitschkie and the devoted and loving father of Carson and Payton. He was the cherished son of Maureen (Bill) Walsh and Harold (Penny) Spires and brother of Lindsay (Adrian), Ryan (Kim), Eryn (Nic), Shawn, Casey (Michelle), Kiley (Patricia) and Steven (Aleks).

Mark loved and was loved by all of Kimberly’s family and especially her parents, Ronald and Catherine Nitschkie and brothers Kyle (Maria) and Ryan (Sarah).

He will be dearly missed by his many nieces and nephews, friends, coworkers and his extended family from coast to coast.

Mark will be remembered for his love of the outdoors, fishing, hunting, boating, chainsaws and time spent with his family and friends.

Jump high and cut hard. You will be forever in our hearts.

A private service will be held for the immediate family. A celebration of life will take place a later date.
