Mark A. Adrian, 80, of Waterford, passed away on Sunday, Sept. 26, 2021.
Mark was born on May 28, 1941, in Bay View Wisconsin to the late Ray and Betty (nee Klapa) Adrian. He spent his early life in Bay View. His family moved to Waterford where he graduated from high school. After graduation, he enlisted in the Army where he proudly served in Germany for two years during the Vietnam War. In June 1970, he married Ellen Tennessen. The couple raised two boys Steven and Chad.
Mark returned from the military and worked in several different locations including an East Troy Restaurant. He later started Mr. Mark’s Restaurant in Waterford that owned and operated until his retirement in 2003. In his spare time, he enjoyed golf, and was an avid Packer Backer, but his pride and joy were his two boys Steven and Chad.
Mark is survived by his sons Steven (Renae) Adrian of Virginia, and Chad (Lisa) Adrian of Watertown; grandchildren, Amalia (Kyle) Priest, and Noah, Eli and Simeon Adrian; siblings, Mary (Paul) Heil, Tricia Wallace, Michael (Elaine) Adrian and special Brother Tim (Pat) Adrian; many nieces and nephews, other relatives and friends.
