The family of Mark Middlebrook invites everyone to join them as they celebrate his life at a Memorial Service on Friday, May 8, followed by an interment at Jacksonville National Cemetery.
Mark Middlebrook, former executive director of Timucuan Parks Foundation, passed away on March 1 at his home in Spring City, TN.
Mark was instrumental in shaping Jacksonville’s wilderness parks and preserves. In 1999, he began working with the City of Jacksonville’s Preservation Project to acquire and protect natural and environmentally sensitive lands. His leadership and vision helped build one of the most impressive urban park systems in the nation and laid the groundwork for what would become the Timucuan Parks Foundation.
Mark’s wife, Gayle, along with his three sons, invites the public to join them in honoring his life and legacy.
