On Wednesday, January 20th, 2016, Mark died in a head-on collision on Interstate 43 while on his way home from work. Mark was an avid Packer and Cubs fan, a music lover, and golfer. Mark was an amazing friend, loving son, brother, and uncle, and he enjoyed spending time with his beloved family. This unexpected tragedy has left many in shock and with a heavy heart.

Mark's colleagues remember how his talent, passion and selflessness resonated with anyone he encountered. He was an integral part of the teams he worked on, and at the same time was a great friend. Mark will be remembered for his generosity, positive attitude and his sincere kindness.  We are extremely proud to have called him part of the Kohler family.

Mark has a loving wife and two children at home. The funds raised for the memorial will go directly to the family in their time of need. Kira and the boys will be able to use the funds for funeral expenses, college funds, and living expenses.

At Kohler, our colleagues become part of our family. We care about each person we work with and losing Mark is like losing a family member. Whether working directly with Mark, or talking to him in passing, he was always able to make a person smile and chuckle. It has been an honor and a privelage to work with such an amazing person as Mark.

We would like to thank you in advance for any donations, as they will mean more than words can describe to the Graceffa family while they are working through this difficult time.
