Obituary For Mark J. "Tex" Levesque
Mark “Tex” Levesque, age 54, peacefully passed away on August 14th after complications with pneumonia, lovingly holding the hands of his mother and brother. Mark was born in 1968 on the very first day of May. He grew up in Peabody, MA where he was quickly known as a great fun-loving kid in the neighborhood. A loyal friend, loving brother, son, and companion, Mark’s spark, personality, and love for family, friends, and fun will be remembered by all who knew him. Mark’s inviting grin and charismatic way were understated but proved to be the perfect recipe to make everyone feel welcome and included. A great storyteller, Mark always enjoyed entertaining others and always strove to make others laugh. With a salted jab of sarcasm combined with a splash of compliment, Mark’s ability to break the ice immediately set you back to the last time you were together and made you feel like family.
Mark’s passion for baseball stood out and was something that has been a legacy within his family starting with his grandfather Jimmy Russell. The self-proclaimed “Wiffle Ball Master,” Mark had a pitch like no other and will be remembered fondly for tournaments at Emerson Park. A sports enthusiast, Mark was a big fan of the Indy 500 and made annual treks to watch the races taking great pleasure in spending time there with friends. His love for live music made him one of his brother’s biggest fans, and he often supported him at gigs as well as attending many concerts together. An adept tradesman, Mark worked most recently as an assembly technician at Axcelis in Beverly and previously had his own contracting business. Mark is survived by his mother Kathleen E. Levesque of Peabody and his brother Kevin J. Levesque, and his wife Leslie, along with their children Ella and James of Salem, MA. In addition, he leaves his longtime companion Danielle McMahon. He was predeceased by his father Kenneth M. Levesque.
His funeral mass will be celebrated on Friday, August 19, 2022, at 10 AM at St. John the Baptist, 17 Chestnut Street, Peabody. Visitation hours will be Thursday, August 18, 2022, 4 - 7 PM at Conway, Cahill-Brodeur Funeral Home, 82 Lynn Street, Peabody. In lieu of flowers, donations in Mark’s name may be made to the Jimmy Fund, 10 Brookline Place West, 6th Floor, Brookline, MA 02445, www.jimmyfund.org.
