On July 22, 2024, the world lost a beloved husband, father, and grandfather. Mark Shute, born on September 12, 1956, in Collierville, Tennessee, passed away surrounded by his loving family.

Mark was the son of John W Shute and Betty D Shute. He shared a beautiful life with his partner, Sharon Shute, and together they had two children. Their daughter, Chastity Brauer, is married to Christopher Brauer (Son in Love), and their son, Russell Cunningham, is married to Lauren Cunningham (Daughter in Love). Mark was also a proud grandfather to four grandchildren.

Mark was known for his passion for riding motorcycles beginning at an early age and collecting WWII memorabilia throughout his adult life. He found joy in exploring open roads on his motorcycle and listening to sermons by Dr. Adrian Rodgers. Along with his love for WWII memorabilia taught the younger generation the importance of what once was through visiting museums and sharing movies.

Mark will be deeply missed by all who knew him. His kind heart, infectious laughter, and unwavering love for his family will forever be remembered.

Those we love do not go away. They walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard, but always near. Loved, missed, and always held dear.
