Mark Walter Meadvin passed away unexpectedly in his sleep on January 31. He was just shy of his 75th birthday. He was the only son of Joseph and Pauline Meadvin.
Mark was a distinguished insurance professional who passed the Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter exam and spent most of his career as a senior underwriter at USF&G Insurance.
A true renaissance man, his intellectual passions were wide-ranging. He was deeply interested in military vessels and aircraft, muscle cars, physics, and the works of Einstein, James Clerk Maxwell, EO Wilson, and Richard Dawkins. He was also an adherent of Friedrich Hayek’s philosophical writings. He attended Wagner College, studying biology and history - disciplines that remained lifelong passions.
Mark’s love story began in first grade at Temple Adath Yeshurun where he met his future wife Anne Spector. They both graduated from Nottingham High School and were married in 1975 at the Temple. They celebrated 50 years of marriage.
He is survived by his loving wife Anne, and their sons, Adam (Laise), Philip, and Eric (Gila)-
they were his greatest accomplishments.
Funeral services will be at 2PM on Monday February 3 at Sisskind Funeral Chapel. Friends may visit with the family from 1-2PM on Monday immediately prior to the service at the funeral chapel, 3175 E. Genesee Street. Burial will be beside his parents in Adath Yeshurun Cemetery.
