Mark's obituary
Mark Alan Wallace passed away on August 13, 2022, at the age of 65, following a valiant battle with cancer. Mark was born to Anna Louise Samples and Winfield Scott Wallace (known as Jack) in Wichita Falls, Texas. He graduated from Texas Tech, and then went on to enjoy a long and esteemed career in Finance, allowing him travel opportunities both domestic and abroad.
In 1997 he married his beloved wife Michele Rossi Wallace on a beautiful beach in Maui, Hawaii. They were deeply devoted to each other and chose to share their life and their hearts with a menagerie of kittens and puppies. Mark could never resist a stray.
During his younger days, Mark, ever the Texan, enjoyed competing and winning at the rodeo with his cutting horses. In later years he traveled extensively, worked out at the gym, and could be found with his wife on the golf course. More recently he loved spoiling his dogs Shadow and Razzie, who gave him endless joy.
Mark was predeceased by his parents, and survived by his wife Michele, his brother William Scott Wallace, Scott's wife Dianne, and their Children Lauren and her husband Ben Baldwin, nephew Jack and niece Grace.
Mark loved nature, wildlife, and especially the ocean, and so will be buried at the Eternal Reef in Florida. A private memorial service will be held there for immediate family.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in Mark's name to Carti Cancer Center, 8901 Carti Way, Little Rock, Arkansas. 72205
