Mark Yingling Obituary

Mark Alan Yingling

Mark Alan Yingling, 69, of Findlay, passed away at Bridge Hospice Care Center Friday, February 14, 2025, following a short but courageous battle with cancer. He was born March 13, 1955, to the late Donald E. and Kathryn "Katie" (Kromer) Yingling. He married Diana Haynes and they later divorced. He is survived by three sons, Brock (Noel) Yingling, Brody Yingling and Braeden (Taylor) Johnson; three grandchildren, Erin, Cameron and Cora; his dogs, Max and Maggie, two brothers, Kevin Yingling and Wayne (Kim) Yingling, two sisters, Ann Yingling and Tracie Yingling and countless beloved nieces and nephews.

He was also preceded in death by two brothers, Mike and Keith "Tank" Yingling.

He was a 1973 graduate of Carey High School and was a "jack of all trades", working within several different companies and also owned his own business. He loved the outdoors, history, and could build or fix anything. He was a Keestone Cop and will be remembered as the family prankster and was extremely quick-witted. His sons will take away many good memories and life-skills that he taught each of them.

A celebration of his life will be at 11 a.m. Friday, February 21, 2025, at COLDREN-CRATES FUNERAL HOME. Visitation will be from 4-7 p.m. Thursday, February 20, 2025, at the funeral home. Burial will be at a later date.

Memorials can be to Bridge Hospice or Wyandot County Humane Society.

The family wishes to extend a heartfelt thank you to the staff of Bridge Hospice for their exceptional care.
