Mark was born to Forrest and Carol (Kyllonen) Abramson on October 22, 1963 in Cook, MN. Mark grew up and attended school in Orr, MN., graduating from Orr High School in 1982. Soon after graduation, Mark attended Lake Superior College, graduating with a civil engineering degree. He went on to work for Abramson Construction, later named KGM Contractors, as a Project Manager and Head Estimator. He remained with the company until his retirement in 2013. Mark met and married Holly Nakari in August of 1986. Though the couple parted ways, they remained friends. Mark met Julie Stahlberg who would become his partner in life. Sadly, she passed away in 2007.
Mark enjoyed spending time on Lake Vermilion with family and friends and traveling to places like Mexico and Florida. The thing Mark most enjoyed were the people around him. Some of Mark's most treasured times in life were coaching his sons who played hockey for Chisholm and Cook. Although Mark enjoyed his pastimes, his favorite "hobby" was working.
