Passed away on September 9, 2021, at the age of 58. His battle with medical issues in recent years showed his determination and strength in facing life challenges with a positive outlook. Despite the pain, Mark came out a hero and stayed strong through it all.
Mark was born on May 12, 1963 to Phillip and Marilyn Lonien. After graduating high school, he went on to start an apprenticeship at AC Tool and Machine Company where he worked as a dedicated Machinist for the last 37 years.
Mark was a kind and loving partner to his wife Susan, as well as an amazing father to Tony and Samantha. Aside from being survived by his wife and children, Mark also leaves behind his brother, Kevin, as well as his dog, Sofie.
He was a family man who enjoyed spending time with his loved ones and cooking. You would not be able to leave a barbecue without leftovers if Mark was in charge of it. He was always thinking of others. His presence will be missed sorely by everyone who had the pleasure to know him.
Mark will be honored in a celebration of life on September 25, 2021 at Krause Funeral Home, 21600 Capitol Drive, Brookfield Wisconsin. Visiting hours are from 12:30 PM – 1:45 PM, with a memorial service to follow at 2:00 PM.
