A memorial for Mark Semeja

Donation protected
Our family leader Mark Semeja passed away March 3rd  2019 from complications after having had a stroke. 
Mark loved the Minnesota State Fair more then anyone else and instilled the love of the State Fair into his wife Becky, their children Chad and Karl and their grandchildren Christian and Keira Semeja. He loved to have everyone there from open to close and all the hours in between. Going to every exhibit, exhibit presentation, competition, beer garden and food booths....he did it all. You would never leave the fair without a full belly, tired legs, lots of laughs and thousands of life long memories. 
We would LOVE to put a bench at the Minnesota State Fair to honor Mark. A bench that can  be sat on by friends and family to talk to him, to people watch with him or just to stop, sit and pay tribute to a man who was so loved and is even more missed. 
We truly think that if we are able to get this bench at the Minnesota State Fair for Mark he will never leave the fair, even after the gates close. We can just hear him saying "No, No, No!!! We can't go yet!!! I have one more thing I have to go see"
