Mark L. Jeschke

Mark L. Jeschke 63, of Cranston, passed away at home on Saturday April 29, 2023 after a short battle with cancer. He was the husband of Norma (Lemay) Jeschke for over 25 years and former husband of the late Doris (Coombs) Anderson. Born in North Providence on March 9, 1960, he was the son of Gilbert and Elene Jeschke, his wonderful parents who predeceased him. He lived in Rhode Island all of his life.

Mark attended and graduated both North Providence High School and CCRI.  He followed his father in choosing a career as an electrician, and with his father's guidance, was top notch.  Mark loved to be at home working on house projects or his yard, or watching a gangster show. He loved rock ‘n’ roll music, a great new tool, a good feast of steamers and lobster, occasional chocolate cake for dinner, and with his wife, they loved entertaining their family.

Besides his wife, Mark is survived by his children Crystal Keon and husband Chris of Cape Cod, Nichole Jamieson and husband Matt also of Cape Cod, Mark Jeschke and his wife Rachelle of Pawtucket, stepdaughter Kimberly (Coningford) Dwyer and fiancé Edward Catoni of Providence, and stepson Todd Coningford of Cranston. He was the brother of Kathy Savasta and David Jeschke. In addition, Mark leaves behind his beloved pride and joy, grandchildren Jonus, Mallory, Stanley, Shaughn, Kailynn, Logan, Stephanie, and Sophie as well as his loyal companion Shih Tzu, Gizmo.

Visitation will be held on Thursday from 4:00-6:00pm in The Butterfield Chapel 500 Pontiac Avenue Cranston.  

A Memorial Remembrance Service will take place at 6:00pm officiated by the Rev. Pam Corcoran.
