Uncle Mark was definitely a Funcle! My mother would freak out when he would take my brothers and I for a ride on his motorcycle, especially when he was doing wheelies. He was hard working and generous – literally would give you the shirt off his back. Loved his siblings, nieces, and nephews, and loved to show it by teasing them regularly. He will be missed by all who knew him.
I have fond memories of visiting my cousins in Grandview growing up. I am glad I was able to reconnect a little with Mark these past weeks. See you soon cousin.
We will miss you brother. We love your fun spirit and teasing. Thanks for coming and visiting us in Florida! Great memories of going to Daytona Beach and body surfing! Glad you got to make your motorcycle trips too. See you soon.
We love you, Lee and Ginny
Love and miss you Mark!
Fond memories as kids running the fields getting chiggers and catching fire flies. Travel to parks and museums while avoiding tornadoes riding our folks cars.
Tough man taking after his dad, my uncle Donald. Cubley’s are tough.
I wouldn’t take for you.
Thoughts and prayers.
Cousin Robert
Mark he was a good person. He worked hard for his family to support them. He was a good partner at Childress painting and on side jobs. I was his partner at work for over 12 years or a little longer. He will be misses by his family and his friends . Rest in peace brother. If I had a wish I would not wish for him to leave this earth. My wish would be to come back . We had words a few years back and when Mark called me to say he was sorry and I said I was sorry but it wasn’t nothing to argue about his fault and my fault no big deal . He said he got in a accident a few months back and he said he has found the lord and he told me I never expected this soon he would leave this earth .So any is he working with the lord or is he fishing his heart out I hope you get a big one.
