Mark Andrew
Christensen Sr. was born on December 14, 1952 and had a fun filled life in
Omaha, NE.  On November 16, 1973 Mark
walked down the aisle to meet his beautiful bride Terri Christensen.
Mark had a passion for hunting, fishing, camping and spending time with his
family. His mission in life was to teach his grandchildren how to read the
river, drive a golf cart, play cards and dice. His grandchildren would call out
his name to provide them ice cream sandwiches after a long day of school or
learning life lessons. He was a member of the Shriner’s and VFW. His favorite
memories of being a Shriner is when he entertained the children, while he wore
his red nose as a clown named Suds. Mark was a dedicated son and employee to
his father’s company Oil Products.  He
had a drive to service his customers in the Nebraska and Iowa area with high
quality oil products. His claim to fame was when he introduced Ethanol to the
Iowa market.  Mark’s greatest quality
according to his family and friends was his undying passion to protect his
family and his sense of humor.  He is
survived by wife Theresa, children Kelly Schrader, Tracy
Hasenjager, Mark Christensen Jr., Pat Christensen, Brian
Christensen and his sisters Sandra Kresl and Gayle Farris.  God blessed Mark with an army of 11
