Mark (Tufts) Dieterle of Putnam CT passed away on October 6th, 2024. He was born and raised in Attleboro, MA.
Mark was determined to overcome his medical obstacles. He never let it stop him; his strength and determination were incredible.
He is predeceased by Ross Tufts his true love in his life. Also, his precious Trixie who was a devoted pet and friend. It's comforting to know they are together again.
He is survived by his sister Susan Sherck and her family, his Tufts family, and many close and dear friends who he loved so much. His friends were there through some of his toughest life and medical times. All of them helped in any way they could and that deserves to be commended.
He also leaves behind his 4, four-legged buddies who brought him so much joy.
Mark had a big smile and a bear hug for everyone. His laughter was infectious.
The following was found in a letter written between Ross and Mark. " You are my set of footprints that I will always follow, or that will always follow me." How profound these words are now as they follow each other into eternity, at last together again. At this time there are no services, however, a celebration of life will be planned for the future.
Good man that always had a smile. I’m gunna miss him.
