We met Mark when he and his family moved to Apex, NC. He was our neighbor and friend. When my parents had major health issues he cut their lawn without being asked. Mark was a rare human being that never made a person beg for the things they needed. If he could help you; he did it without hesitation. Just a gem of a human being. He was our grill champion. We would wake up on summer weekends to the smell of the most amazing bbq! A few hours later our door bell would ring and he’d be standing there with a smile and a slab of ribs all wrapped up. My daughter ALWAYS got her own special package because she was “his girl”! We admire the Baysdens as a family. No matter the circumstances Mark and Jodi always greet people with love. Mark was a tremendous force as a husband, father,  son and friend. We are so fortunate  our paths crossed on life’s journey. There is no doubt he will be missed. While the space he left can never be filled; I pray the family finds strength to continue making loving memories. His legacy will live on within every moment and every smile. His life meant something to us!!! Thank you for being so much of what the world needs. Mark Lee is truly Gods friend. We offer applause to your family in place of condolences for a beautiful life lived. Together yall created magic and the world is better for it!
