John Mark Rushing, 60, of Madill, Okla. went to be with his Lord and Savior on Wednesday, April 15, 2020, at his home in Madill.
Mark was born in Ardmore on July 21, 1959 to John D. and Linda (Murray) Rushing. He lived his entire life in the Texoma area. In his younger years, he enjoyed riding bulls and rodeoing. He loved playing his guitar, singing, hanging out with friends and family and “socializing.” His greatest love of all was hunting on Wilson Creek and fishing with his best friends, Jamie Scott and Doug Rozell.
His career began working with the water/soil conservation, working many, many years for Uniroyal and four years for Cimmerex /Soil Farming before his retirement in 2014. Mark had many friends and never met a stranger. He will be missed by all who knew him.
He was preceded in death by his father, John Rushing, mother, Linda Murray Miller and son, Kelly Paul Carroll.
He is survived by his companion of 16 years, Mary Shelton of the home; daughters, Callie Shann Rushing of Denison, Texas, Amanda Nichols and Angela Maldonado both of Madill, Okla.; sons, Bowen Rushing of Ardmore, Okla. and Jarod Colbert of Madill, Okla.; sisters, Laura Rushing and Sherry Hill both of Madill, Okla., Patsy Piculin and husband Ed and Lyn Rushing both of Oklahoma City, Okla.; brothers, Alan Rushing and wife Anita “Bert” of Madill, Okla., John Stacy and wife Missy of Lebanon, Okla., Jim Honea and wife Laura of Wilson, Okla., Bobby Honea of Ardmore, Okla., and Mark Honea and wife Kathi of Madill, Okla.; numerous grandchildren, nieces and nephews. He also leaves behind his closest four legged furry friend, Cupcake “Cuppy”.
A celebration of life will be at a later time.
