Mark was born in Aberdeen Washington, February 19, 1914. His son of Spokane WA, and daughter of Tacoma, WA, six grandchildren and numerous great-grandchildren survive him. His two loving wives, Lorraine Canterbury and Myrtle Teeter-Canterbury preceded him in death. Mark graduated from the University of Washington in 1938 (pre-law) joining the Army in 1941 he served in the foreign services and the Army intelligence where he was decorated. After his military service he became the official court reporter for the Superior courts of King, Pierce and Thurston Counties.
