"To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure." - J.K. Rowling Mark Van Zandt, age 67, passed away on June 22, 2016 at New York Presbyterian Hospital in New York City surrounded by his loving family. He is survived by his wife of 47 years, Cyndi, his daughters Lisa (Justin), Erin (Steven) and Marisa (Chris), his grandchildren Mia, Ava, Vincent, Giovanni, Carter, Stefano and Will and by his sister Melissa. He is preceded in death by his mother Jane and stepfather Charles Van Zandt.
He graduated from Penn State University in 1971 with a degree in marketing. Upon graduating he accepted a position in sales with The Hershey Company, where he worked for more than 32 years.

He also volunteered for the Hershey Information Center. Mark was an avid sports fan (go PSU!), a lover of food, music and world travel, visiting 38 different countries.
