The University of Alberta banner is flying at half-mast from June 19-22, 2023 in remembrance of Mark Andrew Longhurst, Electrical Inspecting/Commissioning Officer with Asset Management and Operations, Facilities and Operations.

It is with profound sadness that the family of Mark Andrew Longhurst share news of his sudden death on June 6 at the age of 45.

Mark was many things: a skilled electrician, a talented volleyball player, a strategic (yet reluctant) board game competitor, and a passionate traveler. Most of all, he was a loving and devoted friend, son, brother, uncle, husband, and father.

Mark will be lovingly remembered by his wife, Jenni; his beloved daughters, Jacqueline and Margaux; his step-mother, Ruth; his siblings, Heather (Jens), Rob, Chad (Kristi-Lee), Joline (Rod), and Sharene (Nathan); and numerous nieces, nephews, and dear friends. Mark is predeceased by his mother, Penny, and his father, Jack.
