He was preceded in death by his father Cliff Williams and his mother Mae Carter. Mark was a serial entrepreneur, wearing many hats over the course of his long career, first as a Fundraiser, Consultant, Real Estate Investor, and much more.

He embodied the very best characteristics one would want to have in a spouse, friend, and father.

His grandchildren Laila Robbins and Jada Lynn Hogans. His Uncle Jerry Bender, cousin Jerry Bender Jr., cousins Ron and Joyce Bender, Nicky, Ranita, their grandchildren Marcus, Mya, Aiden, and Mylan.
