Obituary
Mark Pace
March 13th, 1983 - June 2nd, 2024
Mark Anthony Pace, 41, of Ucon, rode into the afterlife June 2, 2024.
Mark was born March 13, 1983, in Long Beach, California, to Randy Lee Pace. He lived in Yucca Valley, California, for a short time before moving to Rigby, Idaho.
He welcomed his first son, Samuel Anthony Heckathorn, son of Ali Heckathorn, in 2004. In November 2009, Mark found the love of his life, Brittany Lynne Messenger. In 2010, they had their first son together, Kaell Markus Pace. Mark married Brittany July 21, 2012. They made their home in Ucon, Idaho, where they grew their family by three more, Artiauna Jai Pace, born 2013; Natharin Allen Pace, born 2016; and finally, Tyverynn Corbin Pace, born 2020.
Mark was hard working, loyal, and loved his current job at Caliber Medical Supply, where he was appreciated and cared about by co-workers, bosses, and the owners. He did whatever he could to help whomever he found in need, from family to strangers.
Mark enjoyed fishing, hiking, watching his daughter play soccer, playing video games with his boys, and most of all feeling the freedom of riding his motorcycle. His kids and “old lady” were his life and he did anything possible to keep them safe, happy, and healthy.
