Mark S. Prichard passed away on March 3, 2022 at his home in North Canton, OH at age 77.  He was surrounded by his wife of 55 years, Ellen "Chris" Prichard, family, and close friends.  Although small in stature, Mark was large in personality and lived life to the fullest. As a lieutenant in the Army, Mark served a tour in Vietnam from 1969-70.  He proudly served after graduating with a degree in Chemical Engineering from the Ohio State University where he was also a member of the ROTC. Mark was an avid sports fan, especially supporting Ohio State athletics, and rooting against "the school up north."  His long work career afforded him the opportunity to travel the world and experience many different people and cultures.  He surely lived life passionately and his love for travel was obvious. He was proceeded in death by his sister, Sue Ann Prichard; his brother, John G. Prichard III; his mother, Vivian Prichard; and his father, John G. Prichard II. Mark is survived by his wife, "Chris" Prichard; and his two sons, Benjamin (Deborah) and Andrew (Kristal); and four grandchildren, Will, Madelyn, Joshua, and Taylor; and numerous nieces, nephews, and friends.
