Marco J. Di Biase

Marco J. Di Biase, known affectionately as Mark, peacefully passed away on April 25, 2025, at the age of 85. Born on August 15, 1939, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Mark lived a life dedicated to service, family, and learning, often finding joy in helping others.

After his military service in the United States Army, where he served as a Radiologist for ten years and rose to the rank of Lt. Colonel, Mark transitioned to a successful career in medicine as a partner at Michigan City Radiologists in Indiana. His journey in healthcare continued through locum tenens work and ultimately led him to serve at the Andrews University Medical Clinic in Michigan. Mark's commitment to his profession was matched only by his deep commitment to his family, which remained his cornerstone.

An alumnus of Columbia Union College, where he graduated in 1962, and Howard University School of Medicine, graduating in 1966, Mark cherished the memories of his college days, often sharing stories filled with laughter and camaraderie. His intelligence and kind spirit endeared him to many, and those who knew him would describe him as easy-going, generous, and welcoming.

Beyond his professional life, Mark had a passion for cars, relishing the time he spent assisting his son with importing Porsches. He was also a voracious reader, particularly enjoying historical books and health and investment newsletters. Mark's love for knowledge was evident, and he shared that passion with those around him.

Mark's family was very important to him. He is survived by his devoted wife, Erika DiBiase; his children, Mark-Erik DiBiase, Tonya Miller, and Stephan DiBiase; and his daughters-in-law, Sue DiBiase and Tammy DiBiase; and his son-in-law, Douglas Miller. He was a proud grandfather to Bayley Young, Madeleine Miller Berti and her husband, Alexos, Dirk Miller, Natasha DiBiase, Dante DiBiase, and Vienna DiBiase. Mark held a special place in his heart for each of them and valued the time spent together creating lasting memories.

He was predeceased by his father, Marco DiBiase, his mother, Anna DiBiase, his sister, Anita Mayer, and brothers Frank, Vincent, and Anthony DiBiase, who all shaped his life in profound ways.
