Mark Burrow, 24, of Abilene Texas, died May 1, 2021 as a result of injuries sustained when hit by a vehicle involving a drunk driver. We know that Mark is now safe in the arms of our Lord and Savior in our forever Heavenly Home.

Mark was born in Abilene, Texas to Janet Margiotta Holder and Tommy Burrow on October 3, 1996.  Mark loved spending time with his family and friends.  He had a special bond with his two younger brothers, Nick and Zack, whom he loved dearly.

Many weekends were spent traveling with his baseball family.  Mark was a 2015 graduate of Abilene High where he also played baseball.  He was named All-District Second Baseman.  Mark was an amazing athlete and an incredible competitor.  In 2017, Mark attended dealer school in Las Vegas and worked as a Craps Dealer for a year.  He then came back to Abilene and earned his Associate’s Degree from Cisco Jr. College and transferred to Texas Tech to pursue a degree in Physics.
