Mark Anthony West

Age 34 of Liberty Township, OH, passed away suddenly, Tuesday, August 10, 2010. Way too soon for those who had the privilege to know him. Mark was born August 10, 1976 in Cincinnati, OH and married Amanda "Mandy" Williams in Fairfield Township, OH on February 1, 2008. He was a graduate of Fairfield High School and worked as a licensed Barber at Biando's Barber Shop in Fairfield. In his life, Mark was respected by everyone he came in contact with. His gentle nature and love for his family was apparent to every friend he acquired along the way. Mark would always be quick to defend his Bengals and Reds, and enjoyed every moment in "The Barber Shop" with customers and working with his friend, Angelo. We have not only lost a good barber and friend, but a better husband, father, son and brother than anyone could ever know! We will miss you...

He leaves behind the most important people in his life, which made him smile, his "Smile". The love of his life - wife, Amanda "Mandy" (nee Williams) West; sons, Austin, Adam and Evan West; beloved mom, Carol (nee White) West; devoted brother, Mike (Michelle) West; father and mother-in-law, Kerry (Sue) Williams; brothers and sisters-in-law, Jessica and Joshua Williams, and Joshua (Melissa) Cawein and their children, Amberly and Ty; and nieces and nephews, Ryan, Ashley and Eric West.
