Mark Stephen Roberts, 64, of Madill, Oklahoma, passed away peacefully on Monday, December 29, 2025, at the Alliance Hospital in Madill.  

He was born on January 1, 1961, in Ardmore, Oklahoma, to the late Vernon L. Roberts and Opal Elizabeth Richards Roberts.

Mark grew up in Madill and attended Madill High School, where he graduated in 1980.  After high school, Mark worked in the oilfield before beginning a long career as an electrician for over 40 years. He worked for Keith Electric, Quality Electric, and later owned and operated Roberts Electric. He always worked very hard, and he was continually helping anyone that needed it, without asking for anything in return. He loved using his skills to bless others in his community. In 1995, Mark married Rita Jane Burris in Sulphur, Oklahoma and they made their home in Madill. He enjoyed spending time with his family, fishing, and riding four-wheelers. If you knew him, then you knew that he loved Jesus and he loved his family. He shared his testimony about all the Lord had done in his life everywhere he went and with everyone he met. He was a very loving and devoted husband, father, and grandfather. He was an incredible man that loved people and he was always making everyone laugh. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, church, and community.
