Mark Fromm, 60, of Festus died Sept. 16, 2024, at his home. Mr. Fromm was known as a hardworking and humble man who loved his family and had a big heart and fun personality. He had bonded with his stepchildren long before marrying his “honner,” and years of love and support earned him the title of “PawPaw Mark.” His grandchildren loved spending time with him. He will be remembered for spoiling his family with his love, laughter and Skittles. Born Aug. 18, 1964, in St. Louis, he was the son of Patricia (Huser) and Jack Fromm.
