It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our father, Mark H. Cederwall on July 17th, 2023 after living a long life with Multiple Sclerosis at the age of 63.
He is survived by his three children: Jen, Dawn-Marie, and Kevin as well as his pride and joy; his beautiful grandchildren Theoden, Kayden, Zoey, Ryan, and Lana. Mark is also survived by his brothers Richard (Gale), Kenny (Colleen), and Warren (Pam).
Mark is predeceased by his loving parents Gordon and Elizabeth.
Dad had a long and successful career as an electrician, an electrical and instrumentation manager, and an electrical engineer in his working days.
In his retirement, he spent his time enjoying his hobbies and watching his favourites: NASCAR, the Toronto Blue Jays, and the Detroit Red Wings. He loved to golf, and travelled to Las Vegas annually to see Jimmy Johnson race and take in the sights.
He had a brilliant mind and a love for creating. Woodworking became a way to channel his creativity, spending hours making unique pieces for his grandkids and to give as sentimental gifts. Dad also loved to customize his home and could make absolutely anything he put his mind to. He was proud of his massive sports memorabilia collection that he curated for over 30 years and loved to show it off and talk with fellow collectors.
His grandkids were his world, his heart and soul. We know it was hard for him to leave them behind, and he is now watching over them all.
Mark has left behind a legacy that we will never forget. Rest peacefully dad, we love you.
