With a heavy heart we share that on April 18th, 2022 Mark Kowalski unexpectedly passed away at the age of 54 while working. He is survived by his wife Denise, their 16 year old son Gavin and their two golden retrievers in Bonny Doon, CA. Any money raised will support Denise and Gavin’s  upcoming costs, expenses, counseling and future expenses for Gavin to attend college. We hope this fund can ease the financial burden they can focus on grieving and healing while they mourn this unfathomable loss.

 

Mark was beloved husband, father, friend, brother and son. He was a gentle soul, intelligent and kind. He loved living in the mountains of California and spending time with his family at the beach and teaching Gavin to surf. He was passionate about playing guitar, stargazing, gardening and watching his son play soccer. Originally from Pennsylvania Mark was an Eagle Scout and earned undergraduate degree Notre Dame University and his Masters Degree from Drexel.

 

A Paddle Out Memorial is planned for May 14th in Santa Cruz California, Details to follow. You are invited to post your memories, videos or photos you have of Mark to this page if you feel comfortable doing so.

 

Sincerely, The Robbins Family
