Mark Misoni

Mark Rowe Misoni, age 57 of Iron River, MI, passed away Monday, May 10, 2010 at Aurora BayCare Medical Center, Green Bay, Wisconsin. He was born on October 24,1952 in Stambaugh, Michigan. The son of Louis and Anna Mae (VanWagner) Misoni, Mark attended Central Elementary School and West Iron County Public Schools. Throughout his life, he was employed by Heath Tree Service, now known as Asplund, Inland Steel, as a crusher operator, M.A. Hanna Mining Company/Groveland Mine, as a maintenance mechanic, and D.A. McPherson, but his true calling was to be a logger. Mark loved logging and his family was very proud that he earned his living by working in the woods. He married the former Patricia "Patti" Jones, on December 4, 1971 at St. Agnes Catholic Church in Iron River, and they were blessed with 38 years together. Above all else, Mark was a devoted and loving husband and father to Patti and their three girls, and a loyal friend to many. Mark was a man who cherished the simple things in life…his family, his friends and his home. He was never happier than when he had a grandchild in his arms, or with a friend, sharing a laugh, or able to offer his hand to someone who needed his help. He will be remembered for being a man of his word, his kind and genuine nature and for his unconditional commitment to the family and friends he loved so much. He was preceded in death by his father, Louis.
