STEPHEN: Mark of Exeter

March 4, 2022 By Haskett Funeral Homes 139 Condolences

STEPHEN: Mark of Exeter

Suddenly at home on Wednesday, March 2, 2022, Donald Mark Stephen of Exeter, at the age of 57. Cherished husband and best friend of Andrea (Becker) Stephen for over 22 years. Proud father of Conner Stephen, and Ryan Stephen. Beloved son of Joan (Broderick) Stephen and the late Donald Carl Stephen (1995) and son-in-law of Alex and Doreen Becker of Dashwood. Dear brother and brother-in-law of Heather and Randy Bilcke, and Derrick and Heather Becker all of Exeter. Fondly remembered by his nieces and nephews; Matt and Melissa and their son Owen, Anna and Drew, Sheldon, and Colbie.

Mark gave more in life than he asked in return. From a young age, Mark followed in the footsteps of his father, working in the printing business. His family operated Stephen Printing for 30 years. Following his time in the family business, Mark worked in advertising for various newspapers in Southwestern Ontario for over 15 years. In his spare time, he loved working with his hands, building furniture, playing guitar, baseball, volleyball, bowling and watching his favourite team, the Toronto Maple Leafs. He enjoyed cooking and loved photography, working on the side capturing special moments for many area families through weddings and family photos.  He always enjoyed being behind the lens. Mark will be missed by his many friends both in the community where he lived and his virtual video gaming community, where many friendships were formed. Above all, Mark truly cherished being a father and spending all of his time with his family.

A private family funeral service will be held at Haskett Funeral Home, Exeter on Saturday, March 5th at 11 AM.

Though the service is private, the family invites you to join with them from the comfort of your home. Stream the service live or at your convenience by visiting www.facebook.com/haskettfh  

Donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be appreciated by the family.

    Andrea, Conner, Ryan, Joan, Heather & Family, Becker Family & all Markโ€™s friends;

    Our sincere sympathy in the sudden loss of Mark. What a shock and what a great guy gone way too soon! Iโ€™ve known Mark to be a fine man since our high school days. He printed my first business cards over 35 years ago. He took numerous pictures of all three of our kids sports teams over the years. Mark was always caring, dependable, fair and a real pleasure to deal with every time. A true gentleman always. We had many, many good talks through the years. Much like the enjoyable visits I had with his Dad Don, in the printing shop. You can all be proud of the โ€œMarkโ€ he left on his community and his family and friends. You remain in our thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.

    Mark & Julie Heimrich, Sarah, Scott & Spencer.

Youโ€™ll laugh a lot and cry a lot, but thatโ€™s how we heal. I know this all too well. May the Lord bless you and give you peace at this very sad time. Most sincerely, Judy (Jory) Hayward, an old neighbour.
