Mark Dau of Grannis, AR, age 67, passed away Friday, September 2, 2022, at Mena Regional Hospital. He was born on January 28, 1955, son of the late Warren L. and Patricia M. (Robnett) Dau.
Mark is survived by his wife Cheryl of Grannis, AR; sons Nickolas of Springfield, OR and Matthew (Beth) of Columbus, MS; daughter Jennifer Wigley (Tony) of Cove, AR; grandchildren Micah, Jonathan, Seth, Nickolas Jr., Olivia, James Jr., Owen, Landy (McKee), Matthew Jr., Tristan, and Stephen; brother, sisters and in-laws. Mark was preceded in death by his parents, his brother John, and his son James.
Everyone who knew Mark felt his big heart and giving nature. He will be greatly missed, especially by his grandchildren, with whom he spent countless hours. Mark was adamant about sharing the love of Jesus with others. He loved God with all of his heart, mind, soul, and strength. If he wanted you to know anything, it would be that there is no other name under heaven by which you can be saved than Jesus.
A celebration of his life will be held at the First Baptist Church, 107 S. 2nd, Wickes, AR on Thursday, September 8th at 10:00AM. We will have a short memorial service and time for sharing stories of Mark.
The family would like to thank Sonny Kimmel, who was like a son to Mark, for everything he did to help during the family’s time of need. They’d also like to thank all of their friends for their support and prayers and all those who spent time with him prior to his passing and made him feel very loved.
