Mark loved hunting, fishing and golfing, and enjoyed doing these activities with his friends every chance he got. He shared the love of the outdoors with both of his kids. Dylan loves to hunt and Lauren loves to fish. Mark also loved snow skiing and camping, and has enjoyed these activities practically his whole life.
