Mark Nimitz 1987-2008
Mark grew up in the Calgary area and spent all of his vacations at the Kiskatinaw River Ranch.
He enjoyed traveling, soccer, rugby and the outdoors through out his school years. Mark had a natural talent with horses and spent hours training and riding. From early teenage hood he began making a significant contribution to the working and management of our ranch.
Mark’s thirst for travel sent him to Australia out of high school where he worked as an exchange student on ranches. The end of May, Mark returned from a second excursion to Australia and Thailand to spend the summer assisting in the building of a new ranch house.
A project that he was thoroughly enjoying. He found working with his Uncle Steve taught him a lot and he was so enthusiastic about the new house.
Last fall Mark and his friend Conner, drove to Halifax to spend time with Michael and were so excited about
Dalhousie that they both enrolled, and were to attend the University there this fall with Michael.
Mark loved life and was happy to spend time visiting.
His kind heart and casual ways won many accolades
from so many people in his short 20 years.
We will dearly miss his smiles and love in our home.
