Mark’s Obituary Mark Prestegaard, age 68, of Lodi, CA, formerly of Fargo, ND died unexpectedly on Thursday, April 11th, 2019 at his home. Mark Leslie Prestegaard, the son of Leslie and Verna (Olson) Prestegaard was born on June 30, 1950 in Mahnomen, Minnesota. He grew up on a farm in Twin Valley, MN, spent some years in South St. Paul MN and graduated from Moorhead High School in 1968. Following high school he joined the Navy and served as a Yeoman in the Captain’s office aboard the USS Duluth from 1969 to 1973. After Leaving the Navy, he became an apprentice/journeyman plumber for Paseka Plumbing. He worked for Moorhead State University from 1980 to 1995. In 1996 he started MP Plumbing and ran his own business for 18 years. He had also been employed at Action Plumbing and G & T Plumbing. In 2016, Mark semi-retired and moved to California where he worked for a couple of hardware stores, finding his favorite one at Ace Hardware in Lodi. He loved to help his coworkers and all the customers he treated like family. Mark was a family man that loved spending time with his children and grandchildren playing games, laughing and joking around. He enjoyed sharing funny stories with all his friends. Anyone that he talked to would hear about the things his family accomplished and how proud of them he was. He enjoyed gardening, hunting with his family and fishing at Golden Eagle Resort, Perham MN. Although a plumber by trade, he was knowledgeable about many things and would lend a hand to anyone that needed help. Through his positive “can do” attitude and loving nature his children and grandchildren will always have the valuable lessons he taught them. Friends that got to know him became his family. Mark is survived by his 3 sons, Ryan (Becky) of Oakley, CA, Jonathan (Holly) of Antioch, CA, and Aaron of Fargo, ND; daughter Stacy (Doc) Brunquist of Anchorage, AK; Grandchildren Monica, Kayla, Spencer, Paige and Dawson; Sister Marie (John) Dohm; Mother of his children, Lynette; many nieces and nephews; cousins and other extended family. He was preceded in death by his parents and grandparents. A graveside service will be held Sunday, June 30, 2019 at 2:00 PM at the Wild Rice Lutheran Cemetery.
