Mark Becker

Mark & Janet BeckerMark R. Becker, July 6, 2009, of Deptford, NJ. Husband of Janet (nee Levine) Becker. Father of Stephanie Levitt and Julie Cramer. Father- in-law of Brian Levitt and Michael Cramer. Son of Jacqueline and the late Arnold Becker. Brother of Susan Evans and Ronald (Lisa Anderson) Becker. Grandfather of Cole and Elle Cramer.

Mark fought cancer for over 12 years with courage and ferocity. His determination and strength will be remembered by all who know him. Part of his personal story "'Treatments, trials and trails, oh my' but life must go on" can be found here.

Mark was a passionate motorcyclist who also enjoyed photography, bow hunting, computers and physical fitness. He was a member of the National Harley Assoc., Camden County Harley Davidson HOGS, Mark with grandson, Cole.the Life Raft Group and Gist Support International. He loved his grandchildren and played with them every opportunity he had. He was a successful graphic designer and photographer throughout his career.

Mark graduated from Trenton State College and attended the School of Visual Arts in New York, NY. Mark had cancer but was never defined by this disease. He did all he could to live as full a life as possible despite the physical limitations that would hold back so many other people.

Mark will be deeply and sadly missed by his family, friends and work associates.
