My condolences to Mark's family. I first met Mark when our Grandson was born in April 2021 and we would often laugh and tease each other while enjoying family. Mark is surely missed by all, his laugh and big smile with a personality loved by all.🙏🙏🙏

He was my baby brother. We grew up together, 4 kids being raised in Casper, Wyoming. It's very hard to believe (& deal with) that it's been 2 years since he passed away. We could share the good & the bad in our lives & always come away with a smile! Mark & I were always very, very close, we both had athletic backgrounds & would challenge each other in any competition, (even with a lot of trash talking thrown in!) When he married Terry & they had the boys, I knew that it was the best thing in his life!!  They were his life!! I know that God has a very special place in heaven for him. Mark made the ultimate statement in his death, and even though it may sound very, very cliche -- I'm sure he would say - cherish ALL of your family members every minute of each & every day, reach out to them as often as possible, no matter what the situation may be or where they are at.  

May God's hand be over every person that Mark touched, he was always a part of my heart & soul & I'm  ever grateful to God to have been his older brother.

To Terry & the boys & their families plus all whom Mark touched, my sincerest love to you all.     Hal Smith 

One of the few really extraordinary people in my life.  So grateful to have been one of his many friends.   Always a smile.  

I remember Mark from the Grant School years. Although it's been many years, I still remember Mark. My condolences to the family and friends.

This breaks my heart. I am so sorry :( My deepest condolences & sympathy during this time <3 I feel so lucky to have met and be able to work with Mark over the last couple of years. His positive attitude, mindset, and jokes kept me going through the day. He is such an amazing person and will be greatly missed and never forgotten <3 

Dear Antelman: We want to convey our deepest condolences and sympathy during this time. The loss of such a wonderful person as Mark touches us all. We are saddened because we no longer will share good times at the Casa Hogar en Penasco, but we look forward to be reunited with him in heaven one day.

Mindy just told me about our Mark.  I am more  sorry than I can say. I have missed him always and will forever more.  A good man he is.

I always think of Mark as such a happy and sincere person.  He had such a fun sense of humor.  I loved all his nick names, Sheaburs, Bodecker, Jewels.  He was so special will will be greatly missed!

Knowing that Mark is no longer with us truly breaks my heart. I’ve been a friend of the family for almost 20 years and have so many beautiful memories of him, Terry and the boys. He was an exceptional father that raised 3 very different but very much the same sons and his amazing parenting shines through them everyday, they’re some of the nicest, most sincere people I’ve ever met because of Mark and Terrys guidance and loving nature. Every time I went to their house I felt welcomed and loved like I was part of the family. And I can recall having a really deep conversation with Mark during Logan‘s bachelor party in Vegas that made me really see just how compassionate he truly was. He gave me great advice and told me that I was growing up to be a fine young man and he was proud of me for how far I had come. I had a really rocky past and Mark never held that against me but rather showered me with kindness and respect. The last time I saw Mark, Logan and I had stopped by their house and he was constructing a treehouse/ play set for his grandkids, he was constantly doing things for everyone else and his generosity is just one of the great qualities he had going for him. I feel very blessed to have been a part of the Antelman’s lives and enjoy all the incredible memories along the way. Now that he’s in heaven my condolences goes out to the family, Mark will be greatly missed but forever in our hearts.

Terry and family,

I am so honored that I had the chance to meet Mark and spend time with him in the summer. His warmth and smile will never be forgotten. He truly was a special man.

Sending love and hugs!

Love,
Jackie Izzo

I'm at a loss for words. Mark was one of the most genuine and caring people I've ever met. No matter how long it has been since the last time we spoke, it is always comfortable and welcoming in Mark and Terry's home. Thank you for being a part of our lives.
With love,
Addy (Amanda) Bareiss

So sorry to hear of Mark’s passing. I lost Gene just a few weeks earlier. I know your family’s love will carry you forward. Much love to you all. 

I run the films in my mind that start back in high school when we played football together, when my sister and another young lady had their eyes on him, Mark’s bachelor party and their beautiful mountain wedding, stranded together in a gymnasium in Eagle, Colorado during a snowstorm, comparing notes on raising kids and getting them through the rookie driver stage (with funny footnotes on repairs I was likely to encounter), the trips to Mexico and fishing from the boat of an ex-con with spark plugs for weights, time at the farm, Terry and Mark’s trips to our home, and just a few weeks ago Mark joking with me about glowing after his treatments. It doesn’t seem possible to me that he’s gone. It does appear that Robert Louis Stevenson had Mark in mind when he wrote, “That man is a success who has lived well, loved much, and laughed often.” A remarkable husband for my sister, a great dad and grandpa, friend to many, outstanding smile and sense of humor, talented athlete, and a positive can-do attitude. Mark, I am eternally grateful that our paths crossed. You have left quite a legacy.  

Brilliant life

When I think of Mark, I think of laughter. He was quick to laugh, and laugh heartily, and was always trying to get others to laugh. John and I had so much fun with him and Terry at the 50th Anniversary of NPH in Mexico, and at various outings over the years. He truly was a special person. We are so saddened to hear about his passing, and that we had not been able to see him and Terry for the last couple of years. Our deep condolences and love to all of the family.

Mark is and will always be a dad to me. I was lucky enough to live with Mark and Terry for a few years, and they treated me and everyone else around them like family from day one, truly always going out of their way to be kind. Mark always had you laughing, engaging in real conversation, and just enjoying your time around him. He was so much fun to be around. He was also there during some of our hardest times and was such an inspiring dad to those of us who didn't really have one. You could almost never catch him without a smile on his face. I will forever miss sharing the coffee pot with him all day, watching baseball together, and hearing his famous one-liners we would all repeat because they were so funny and iconic. Mark is someone you could never ever forget and he will always be remembered and missed. Love you Marky Mark!

I work with Mark and Terry as a Professional Organizer. I had the privilege of spending my days working along side Mark. No matter how long our day was or how much "stuff" the clients had he was always so positive and joyful. He would always greet me with "'What's up Sarah Lee, bake any cookies today?" We could always count on Mark to crack jokes and lighten up the mood. Terry and Mark work so hard to make everyone around them happy. We have already felt the absence of Mark's presence, he will be greatly missed.  

I've known Mark  since I was a  girl and he was dating my sister in highschool. Even then Mark was funny, kind and helpful. He was  a compassionate and loving brother in law that always supported me no matter what I was involved with or currently working on.  Recently, Mark helped me with my golf game and my fitness program. These are great pictures of Mark with his wife, sons and their spouses and grandkids that truly reflect the family man that he was. I will miss him deeply but will enjoy seeing his legacy live on in his wife and my nephews Landon, Logan and Leighton and their amazing families.
