Mark V. Novak, age 66, passed away at Froedtert South-Pleasant Prairie on Wednesday, August 26, 2020.
Mark was born in Kenosha, WI on November 13, 1953, he was the son of the late Chet and Grace (Bemowski) Novak. He was a graduate of Bradford High School in 1972.
On July 5, 1975, he was united in marriage to Jeanette Franti at Holy Nativity Church. At the time of his passing they were blessed with 45 years of marriage.
He was employed by American Motors/Chrysler until the plant closed. He then worked for S.C. Johnson & Co, until his retirement in 2013.
Mark could often be found in front of the TV watching the Brewers or Packers. He enjoyed a good trip to the casino. He liked to collect and search for old coins. In his younger years, he was quite the bowler! He especially enjoyed spoiling his granddaughters with treats whenever he came to visit.
Mark is survived by his wife, Jeanette; his daughter, Amy (Sheldon) Carlton; his two granddaughters, Laney and Lexi; his siblings, Cheryl Novak, Noreen (Kevin) Wilkensen, Scott (Lorrie) Novak, Jim (Trisha) Novak and Lee (Maria) Novak; his sister in-law and brothers in-law, Annette (Ron) Haapala and Gordie (Brenda) Franti; his pet dog, Harley and many loving nieces and nephews.
Mark was preceded in death by his parents.

Jerry Streich (Strike)Let me start out by saying I'm sorry to hear that Mark has passed away. My sympathies to the family. I want to say about Mark as being quite the bowler. Back in 1969, Carl Bloom and I were going to bowl the Super Teens 2 junior league and we needed a bowler since the league was a 3 person team. Coach Lou Guttormsen said Mark would like to bowl with us and we added him to our team. He was a good addition to the team. We won first place every year we bowled in that league. I was winning high average, high series, and high game awards for each year and Mark was winning the second place prizes. Those were good days. I remember like it was yesterday, 1970 or 71, when he and I were bowling at the junior state bowling tournament in Janesville. We didn't get to bowl together. Coach Lou picked the teams. She had me bowl with her two sons, Gary and Lee. I don't remember who Mark bowled with, but he was 4 lanes away from me. I can't remember how we bowled, but I do remember watching Mark pick up a 7-10 split. To this day, I still haven't picked up the 7-10. I wished Mark kept bowling. He might had been inducted into the Kenosha Bowling Hall of Fame like I am.
