Mark A. Benner, Sr., age 64, of Lansdowne, PA, formerly of West Chester, PA, passed away on Wednesday, November 2, 2022, at Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital.
Mark grew up in the Newtown Square area and graduated from Mitchell Prep in Haverford, PA.
In his free time growing up, he was always riding dirt bikes and motorcycles with his friends and brothers or polishing his sports car.
Upon graduating, he went right to work in the family business as a painting contractor. He then quickly worked his way to becoming one of the owners, alongside his father and 3 other brothers. Mark had an incredible work ethic and was always on the road running to the various job sites, helping the on-site team with supplies, quality control and ensuring the company delivered a perfect service to the customer.
Mark had a passion for connecting with other people and could often be found striking up a meaningful conversation with anyone, anywhere he went. His warm and outgoing personality led to many heart-felt conversations with friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues. Whether it was a current event or a mutual interest, his wit and humor always put a smile on the other person’s face.
Mark loved his three children and family. He always very involved in their lives and attended many ice hockey games, soccer games and dance recitals. He was very proud of them and always held them close to his heart. They gave him great joy, and he was very generous and supportive to them. As the kids grew up and left the house, he was continuously checking in on them to make sure they were doing alright.
