Mark was born on February 8, 1956, in Monticello, Iowa, the son of LeRoy “Barney” and Margaret “Peg” (Came) Kula. He graduated from Central City High School with the class of 1974. On May 31, 1975, in Prairieburg, Mark was united in marriage to his high school sweetheart, Karen R. Slater. He was an exceptionally talented career welder/fabricator as well as a jack of all trades and master of most. Mark enjoyed time spent in his garage with many friends and family stopping by anytime they saw the garage door open. He was a funny cut-up that loved to laugh and unconditionally loved his wife, kids, grandkids, friends and the Lord. Mark will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.

Mark is survived and lovingly remembered by his wife of 46 years, Karen Kula; two sons, Casey Kula and Benjamin (Amanda) Kula; one daughter, Kelli Kula, all of Prairieburg; 11 grandchildren which he very much enjoyed, Caleb, Logan, Jacob, Connor, Hailey, Blade, Alexis, Jayson, Emarie, Eivin, and Ellisyn; one sister, DeeDee “Sis” (Jack) Kintzel of Toddville, Iowa; three brothers, Daniel Kula of Grinnell, Iowa, Kevin Kula (Cherie Dunn) of Arkansas; and his twin brother, Matthew Kula (Rosetta Anderson) of Cedar Rapids, Iowa; and Mark’s dear friends, Chris Behrens of Cedar Rapids and Darrell Elliott of Anamosa.

He was preceded in death by his parents; and brother, David Kula.
