Mark Stephen Weber, age 70, passed away peacefully on Saturday, May 10, 2025, at Olathe Hospice House, surrounded by loved ones.
Born on March 20, 1955, in Kansas City, Missouri, Mark lived life with a hopeful heart and a dreamer’s spirit. He carried an optimism that never faded. Full of wit, curiosity, and imagination, Mark lived with a sense of possibility that made him truly one of a kind.
Mark was strong-willed, sharp, and full of character. He had a wealth of knowledge and a streak of orneriness that made him both entertaining and unforgettable. He loved being around family and longtime friends, and he never turned down a good meal or a chance to grill. A lifelong car enthusiast, Mark enjoyed watching races, auctions, and reading muscle car magazines. He had a deep appreciation for the little things — a good meal, a great car, and a job well done.
He worked for over 30 years at Jorgensen Steel Company as both a steel worker and truck driver. Known for his strong work ethic, Mark took pride in doing things right.
Mark was a dreamer, full of grit and determination. His strong-willed spirit and boundless optimism guided him through life, always believing things would work out. Mark’s life was a testament to living with resilience, unwavering determination, and a constant sense of possibility.

He is survived by his loving sisters, Ann Lundine, Sue (Pat) Upton, and Janet Turcotte; his two children, Brent and Becca (Kyle); and his three cherished grandsons. He also leaves behind five nieces and nephews and one great-niece, all of whom he loved dearly and who will miss him deeply.
