Mark R. Garlick

Mark R. Garlick, 59, of Sioux City, passed away Sunday, March 31, 2019.  A Celebration of Life will be 1:00 to 4:00 PM Saturday, April 6, 2019 at Stoney Creek Hotel & Conference Center.   

Mark was born the son of Antony and Fiorella (Missoni) Garlick on December 29, 1959 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He travelled the world in his younger days but returned home to the Midwest to attend college and hone his skills to his true passion, helping others.

He worked as a mental health counselor for the past fifteen years in Sioux City. His guiding principle was simply, “In a world where you can be anything, be kind.”

Music, especially concerts, was a central part of his life, as was his spirituality and the outdoors. Mark was never happier than on the day he married Patti Fravel: December 4, 2016.

Mark is survived by his wife, Patti; his daughter, Bianca; his mother, Fiorella and younger brother, David.

He was preceded in death by his father, Antony.
