Mark A. Bolitho
HAMPTON — Mark A. Bolitho, 44, after a short but courageous battle with cancer, met up with his father (John Bolitho 1937-1991) on Sunday, May 4, 2008, at a quiet little fishing hole.
Mark lived in Netcong before moving to Crandon Lakes, where he died peacefully in his home. Mark was a graduate of Lenape Valley Regional High School and worked at the Landing Post Office for almost 25 years.
He is survived by his fiancιe, Christina Wahl; his mother, Irene Bolitho; his sister, Renee Bolitho; his aunt, Toni Koeck; his aunt Grace and uncle Joe Lamberto; his cousins, Robert Smith, Joe and Maureen Lamberto and their children, Abbey, Joey and Jack, Michael and Margie Lamberto and their children, Nicholas, Marcos and Ana, Robert Koeck Jr., Kerry and Kurt Klein and their son Jake, and Lori and Jason Cook and their children, Jordan and Casey; and his extended family, Kathleen and Rob Zendzian.
Mark also is survived by his Columbus Day weekend hiking buddies, his fishing buddies, many friends from high school and his "hang in the garage" buddies. He also leaves his doodle little dog, Emma.
A family statement said, "Mark made the most of every day. He enjoyed the smaller things in life and never needed more than what he had. He was funny, loved to laugh and definitely enjoyed busting chops. You were always sure of a good time or at least a laugh when you ran into Mark.
Along with loving life in general, he also enjoyed hiking, fishing, campfires at his house, the beach whether near or far, good food — which didn't mean expensive — a roller dog or boardwalk pizza did him just fine. He also enjoyed the company of family, friends and even strangers.
It is amazing how much one person can touch so many hearts. We will miss you terribly, Mark, and we'll see ya in the funnies or see ya when I get there."
Per Mark's request, there will be no services. On July 4, his 45th birthday, there will be a private ceremony to scatter his ashes in one of his favorite spots.
Please feel free to make donations in his name to The Appalachian Trail Conservatory (www. appalachiantrail.org) or the American Cancer Society (www. cancer.org).
