The family of Mark Edward Perry, aged 69, is heartbroken to share that he passed away peacefully at home in Loveland, Ohio on May 2, 2025. Born October 12, 1955, in Memphis, Tennessee, Mark spent much of his life in Knoxville and Nashville before relocating to Cincinnati with Kroger in 2002.

Mark began working at Kroger at the age of 15, eventually building a remarkable 52-year career with the company. Known for his unwavering work ethic and deep sense of loyalty, he touched the lives of countless colleagues and customers throughout the decades.

A true Southern gentleman with a sharp sense of humor, Mark found joy in life's everyday moments. He was an avid sports fan, faithfully cheering on the Tennessee Vols, Tennessee Titans, Cincinnati Bengals, and Cincinnati Reds. He loved golf, the Florida beach, good music, and time with his family. But nothing brought him more pride than the people he loved. He lit up in the presence of his daughters and grandsons and was always offering a helping hand or a steady word of advice.

He is survived by his devoted wife of 40 years Suzanne Perry; daughters Sarah Elizabeth Perry (David Morse), Ashley (Rick) Butler, and Catherine Perry; and grandsons Daniel and Thomas Butler. His legacy of kindness, strength, and quiet generosity will live on in all who knew and loved him.

Family and friends will be received on Saturday, May 24 from 10 AM - 12 PM in the Tufts Schildmeyer Funeral Home, 129 N. Riverside Ave., Loveland.
