Mark Edmund Gelinas passed away on October 9, 2025, at his residence. He was born on May 1, 1962, in Massachusetts, to Raymond and Jean Cole Gelinas, who survive.

A life-long karaoke lover, in his youth he served in the United States Air Force and enjoyed hang gliding, and in his later years he became a skilled woodcrafter and mechanic. He was a Jack-of-all-trades with a wicked sense of humor, and he will be missed.

In addition to his parents, he is survived by his sisters, daughter, and granddaughter.

No public service will be held; the family will perform small ash scatterings at their respective homes.
