Angelo F. Mark, a man loved by everyone, passed away comfortably surrounded by his family, April 11, 2019, at the age of 90.
Born April 24, 1928, in Tooele, Utah, the youngest of six to Joseph Mark and Emilia Busico.
His family purchased a farm in Riverdale, Utah in 1928, shortly after he was born. At age 13, when his father passed away, Angelo became the primary son of the soil. He was a mighty farmer and grew a large variety of vegetables. Many people enjoyed his fresh red potatoes, sweet corn, and tomatoes.
Angelo graduated from Weber High School in 1946. On October 20, 1950, he married Norma Jean Thatcher, they later divorced. On November 28, 1988, he married Ardith Kramer. After the sale of the family farm in 1994, they made their home in South Ogden.
Angelo worked for Tri-County Implement for eight years. He worked at Mills Equipment for 19 years selling tractors, trucks, and farm equipment. Angelo became the first full-time public works Director for Riverdale City and later became the Manager for Roy Water Conservancy. He became self-employed at A&M Leasing for the remainder of his career.
Angelos greatest passion was his family. Sharing with them a love of traveling, buying and restoring old International Tractors, spending time at his "farm" tinkering as well as pulling those silver handles in Wendover. $$
Angelo is survived by his wife, Ardith of 30 years; two sons, Michael (Mary) Mark, and Joseph (Pam) Mark; four granddaughters, Cathy (David) Munsell, Caralee (Corey) West, Brenda (James) West, and Katie (Davy) Jones; three grandsons, Garrett Mark, Austin (Bryan) Mark, and Kendall (Shannon) Mark; seven great-grandchildren and one great-great-granddaughter; his stepchildren, Sherrie Rathjen, Richard (Karen)Kramer, and Judy Price; six step-grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents Joseph and Emilia Mark; sisters, Levia Lalle, Rose "Rosie" Toscan, Frances "Frannie" Anderson, and Lena Melone; brother Antonio "Tony" Mark; and son-in-law, Martin Rathjen.
