Mark Yingling

Mark Alan Yingling, 69, of Findlay, passed away at Bridge Hospice Care Center on Friday, Feb. 14, 2025, following a short but courageous battle with cancer.
He was born on March 13, 1955, to the late Donald E. and Kathryn “Katie” (Kromer) Yingling. He married Diana Haynes and they later divorced. He is survived by three sons, Brock (Noel) Yingling, Brody Yingling and Braeden (Taylor) Johnson; three grandchildren, Erin, Cameron and Cora; his dogs, Max and Maggie; two brothers, Kevin Yingling and Wayne (Kim) Yingling; two sisters, Ann Yingling and Tracie Yingling; and countless beloved nieces and nephews.
He was also preceded in death by two brothers, Mike and Keith “Tank” Yingling.
He was a 1973 graduate of Carey High School and was a “jack of all trades,” working within several different companies and also owned his own business. He loved the outdoors, history and could build or fix anything. He was a Keystone Cop and will be remembered as the family prankster and was extremely quick-witted. His sons will take away many good memories and life skills that he taught each of them.
Visitation will be held from 4-7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 20, at Coldren-Crates Funeral Home, Findlay. A celebration of his life will be held at 11 a.m. Friday, Feb. 21, at the funeral home. Burial will be held at a later date.
