"To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord." (2 Corinthians 5:8)

Mark Andrew Collins, age 65, of Wayland, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Thursday, April 14, 2022.

Mark loved hard and his grandkids were his center. He enjoyed lake life at his generational cottage, grilling, chilling and (mostly) relaxing boat rides with an occasional wild one. Cars were a passion from a young age and he continued to work on them until physical limitations no longer allowed it.

He was preceded in death by his wife of 29 years Anita (Anderson) Collins; brother, Vance Collins and parents, Jack & Vivian Collins.

He will be lovingly remembered by his children, Candice Stavale, Kristen Collins-Fink, (son in law) Collin Fink. Andrew Collins; and grandchildren, Ava and Hudson Stavale. Leighton, Vivian, and Harper Fink.
