Mark Gilbreath

(From Ulmer Funeral Home)

Mark Allen Gilbreath, age 47, passed away Monday October 13, 2014 in his rural Carthage home.

Mark was born on November 29, 1966 and graduated from Jasper High School in 1985. Mark was a lifelong member of Faith Lutheran Church. He worked as a cashier for Price Cutter in Carthage where he was loved by both his customers and coworkers. Mark’s true passion was sports; he was the number one fan of the Kansas City Chiefs, the Kansas City Royals and the Jasper Eagles. He kept stats, line judged, moved chains, and did whatever else was asked of him for many local sports teams and at both the high school and collegiate level. Mark simply loved people: friends, family, coaches, players and customers. His smile and laugh will be missed by all of those who knew Mark. 

He is preceded in death by his mother Darlene Gilbreath. Mark is survived by his father Frank Gilbreath, his brother and sister-in-law Scott and Tammy Gilbreath, his sister and brother-in-law Lori and Joel Terry, nieces Lindsay Terry, Megan and Lauren Gilbreath all of Carthage.
