Mark Alexander Mora

Sherman-Mark Alexander Mora, 24, passed away surrounded by the loving presence of his family after a brave battle with cancer, and is now with our Lord.

Mark was born the youngest child to Gilbert Mora Jr. and Emma Barbosa Perez, on January 23, 1990 in Sherman, Texas. He graduated from Sherman High in 2008; attended Pan American University in Edinburg, Texas for one year; Grayson Community College for a year and a half; and finished at U.T. Dallas in April 2013. Mark worked very hard and received two degrees, a Bachelors of Science in Finance and a Business Administration. Mark made his family very proud.

Mark grew up in Sherman, Texas and was currently working with M. A. A. Property Management. Mark loved life, his job, friends and family. Mark was a true friend to many, a jokester at heart, a wonderful listener and a caring person. Mark will be remembered for his laughter, having fun, working hard, and always presenting his best.
