They raised their family with a lot of fun loving humor and many of the corny jokes that Mark loved. He made his living as an owner/operator of a taxi, most recently with Yellow Cab. In off hours, Mark enjoyed fishing, boating, and traveling to the mountains to listen to the elk bugle. He was also a car enthusiast, restoring a '73 Charger, going out of his way for car shows, and watching NASCAR. Most of all, he enjoyed watching Westerns especially with the grandchildren who he loved. He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Gerry Huebbe; and father-in-law, Bud Vawter. Memorials may be directed to the family.
