Mark Allen was born June 3, 1954, in Clinton, Iowa, son of Wilfred and Mariam (Parker) Huebbe. On June 20, 1983, he married his love, Rebecca Vawter, in Iowa City. They raised their family with a lot of fun-loving humor and many of the corny jokes that Mark loved. He made his living as an owner/operator of a taxi, most recently with Yellow Cab.

In off hours, Mark enjoyed fishing, boating and traveling to the mountains to listen to the elk bugle. He also was a car enthusiast, restoring a '73 Charger, going out of his way for car shows and watching NASCAR. Most of all, he enjoyed watching Westerns, especially with the grandchildren whom he loved.

He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Gerry Huebbe; and father-in-law, Bud Vawter.

Memorials may be directed to the family.
