Obituary
Mark Stuart Cline, Beloved Son, Brother, Husband, Father, Grandfather, and Friend was taken into God’s Hands on March 14, 2023. He was 62 years old and had hopes and dreams of a long life with two new grandchildren and a flourishing career at Boeing.
Mark was born in Seattle Washington on March 31, 1960 to Delsa Mae Muggy Cline and Robert Eugene Cline. He had an older Sister Carol and a younger Brother Matthew. Mark’s family were big into the Scouts and enjoyed all of the Long Hikes and Jamborees. Everything that went along with being a boy scout Mark embraced, and he became a true Eagle Scout with all the attributes.
After Graduating from South Kitsap High School in 1978, Mark started working for the Boeing Company in 1979 as a “Riveter”. He was married and blessed with a son Kasey in 1980. After years on the shop floor and as a Union Stuart, he transitioned his employment to training others. He spent the rest of his long career teaching, instructing and coaching other Boeing Employees. Mark moved onto Everett working with Skill Enhancement Centers and Workplace Coaching.
Mark married Laura Cline in 2015 and adopted the Dad role to her daughter Roxanne. He began working in Renton again, bringing goals of Skill Enhancement Centers along with him. After establishing them there, he was given the opportunity to do the same in Auburn for the Fabrication Division. He was recently promoted to Management and had a bright future.
When not working, Mark enjoyed spending time with his family camping, boating and Rooting for the home team, whether that be the Seahawks or the Mariners. He also enjoyed Video Games that he enjoyed playing with friends.
Along with being blessed with a Grandson Aiden in 2010, Kasey married the love of his life Erika, who brought two lovely new Grandchildren into the Cline Family, Joshua and Jaylene. They were blessed with a daughter Ella in September of 2020 and in December of 2023, Roxanne gave him grandchild number five, Isabelle. Mark embraced being a Grandpa to the fullest. We are all going to miss Mark and only ask for your prayers.
Mark’s Celebration of Life with be held at 1PM Saturday, April 15th at the Bonney Watson Memorial Park Chapel, with a Reception to follow there as well. It is located at 16445 International Blvd in Seatac, Washington. We have the Chapel until 5PM so if you only have time to stop by we would love to see you. Mark Cline touched many lives and all are welcome. He will be missed by many, but his legacy will live on thru generations to come.
I had the pleasure of working with Mark and Laura at Boeing, Renton. When they got married I knew it was a match that would last forever.
Mark was such a great asset to the training team with his incredible knowledge and his willingness to always help out no matter what the need.
Mark will be missed by many. Sending lots of loving prayers of comfort to your family.
I had the pleasure of meeting Mark through Boeing when I joined his work group in 2019 as a Workplace Coach myself. Mark always had a smile and something funny to say. He was truly a kind person and was a true listener and genuinely wanted to know how you were doing. Mark was also very empathetic and when I had the occasional difficulty in life, Mark was always right there to listen and give advice. He was a great Coach, Manager, person & friend and will indeed truly be missed.
I had the honor and pleasure of working with Mark in Renton on the 737. From the day we met, Mark treated me as a long time friend immediately and helped with training me in my new work assignment. His knowledge, patience and laid back personality made work easier.
My heart goes out to his wife and family. He will be missed by all who had the opportunity to know him.
