Mark Louis Pickhardt, 71, of DeLand, Florida, passed away peacefully at home on September 2, 2025, with his wife and daughter by his side.
Born on March 9, 1954, in Fort Campbell, Kentucky, Mark was the son of Robert Pickhardt and Signhild Linnea Pickhardt. He served his country as a proud member of the United States Coast Guard.
Mark had a heart of gold and a generous spirit. He made sure everyone around him was cared for, right up until his final breath. Known for his great sense of humor, Mark brought laughter and comfort wherever he went. His presence made life better for those fortunate enough to know him.
He is survived by his loving wife of nearly 41 years, Vicki Pickhardt; his daughter, Nichole McCloud (Gary); his sister, Patricia Foelker; grandchildren, Austin and Abegail; and great-grandchildren, Oliver and Parker.
Mark will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by his family and friends.
