Mark was born in Beaufort, SC but grew up all over the country as he was a member of a Marine Corps Family. He graduated from East Bladen High School in 1984 and joined the work force as a diesel mechanic for over 30 years. Mark spent the last eight years in management. Upon his passing, he was employed by Atlantic Emergency Solutions where he grew a love for all First Responders. He was preceded in death by his father, Laurice Miller Hughes; brother, Franklin; sister, Baby Jane; paternal grandparents, Mr. & Mrs. Roy Hughes and maternal grandparents, Mr. & Mrs. Haywood McDonald.
Mark was an avid fisherman who had a love for the Outer Banks of NC. He loved all of his fur family and petting every dog he met. He was a man of compassion. God's love showed in how he lived his life, loved his family, and took care of those he worked with and served in his occupation.
