Obituary For Mark Allan Willingham

Born February 22, 1964 in Fremont, CA, and entered into rest on October 31, 2014 in Brawley, CA at the age of 50. Survived by his loving wife Carolyn Plummer-Willingham; his mother Betty Willingham; his siblings: Beverly Esteban, Caren Alcantar (Richard), and John Willingham (Phyllis); 10 nieces and nephews; and 15 great nieces and great nephews.

Mark traveled to many states in our great country during his career as a truck driver. He was an avid Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco Giants fan. He loved to bowl and participated in a league for many years. He enjoyed playing video games with his nephews and making his little nieces and nephews laugh with his Donald Duck impersonation. He was a big guy with a soft voice who loved his family so much. He is now at peace rejoicing in Heaven.

    I am thankful for the times I spent with Mark. He was my gentle giant cousin. My kids heard the stories I had with Mark. My son is much like the gentle giant Mark was. Mark gave the example of what to teach my son of how to be a gentle giant. I will always love and miss Mark, from his cousin Robert Charlton

    I love you, Mark! You were a very kind, humble and warm person and a precious cousin. I have so many happy memories of you, especially from our childhood growing up together. I will miss you dearly. I know you are rejoicing with Jesus in heaven and I will see you again. Our prayers are with you Aunt Betty, Caren, Bev, and Johnny and your children. We know our Heavenly Father is helping you through this. We love you, Sandi and Craig

    Mark, Mark, Mark...my heart is broken. If you only knew!!! A lifetime is never enough time. My memories have you in them from the beginning...and we had some really great conversations! Some really great laughs. And we shared some really sad times too over the years. I always wanted to help you and I did try so many times. Boy, could you be frustrating and make me crazy (smiles--you know it's true) but you were my brother and I loved you. I love you still. Your passing has left a hole in so many lives and we are forever changed by it. Your hugs were huge and the very best. Until the day we meet again baby brother...give Dad a hug frome me. Love, Caren
