Mark Allen Kaeser was born February 13, 1970 in Waukon, the son of Gordon, Jr. and Darlene (Moen) Kaeser. He was baptized and confirmed at First Presbyterian Church and graduated from Waukon High School in 1989. Mark was mechanically-minded from an early age and always trying to figure out how things worked. He spent a summer during school working road construction for Dick Loven. Since graduating he has worked with his father and brother as an auto body repairman at Gordy’s Auto Body in Waukon. Mark took great pride in his work and everything that he did had to be just right. He also managed a car wash in Waukon for Leon Einck for several years.
Mark enjoyed spending time in his garden and tending to projects at his house. Woodworking, deer hunting, fishing, cutting wood, plowing snow, and helping at the farm were some of his other favorite pastimes. He enjoyed two special trips to Alaska with his grandmother, LaVon. Mark liked to work on or run anything that had wheels or an engine, and had a particular passion for riding and working on his motorcycles. He also loved spending time with his family, especially playing with the young children. Mark had a heart of gold and will be remembered for his willingness to help anyone he could.
