Mark Kevin Kralovic

Mark Kralovic, 66, of Toledo, Ohio, passed away peacefully at the Cleveland Clinic on March 13, 2026.

Born August 15, 1959, in Toledo, Mark was the son of John and Ann Marie (Keivens) Kralovic. He graduated from Waite High School in 1977 and proudly served in the United States Air Force. After returning home, Mark followed a proud family tradition by joining Iron Workers Local 55, becoming a skilled ironworker and dedicating more than 30 years to the trade before retiring. Following in the footsteps of his father and two uncles was one of his greatest sources of pride.

Mark met Florence Baker on a blind date, and together they built a family and welcomed two children, Allison and Kevin, who meant the world to him.

Those who knew Mark will remember his quick wit and playful humor. He loved making people laugh, whether through a well-timed joke, a funny story, or his beloved Rodney Dangerfield impression. Mark had a kind and compassionate heart, especially when it came to animals. His loyal dog, Baby, was a constant companion. He also took great care of the wildlife in his yard, always making sure they had food and water. Mark often said he hated seeing trees cut down because he knew it meant an animal was losing its home.

Mark was preceded in death by his parents, John and Ann Marie (Keivens) Kralovic; step-mother, Dorothy Kralovic; his sister-in-law, Paula Kralovic; and his loving partner, Leslie Michener.

He is survived by his daughter, Allison Kralovic (Joseph); his son, Kevin (Kimberly) Kralovic; his former wife, Florence and her husband Ken, who remained close to Mark and provided care and friendship throughout his illness; sisters Suzanne (Jack) Wlodarz and Chris (Bob) Ricker; brothers Mike (Kathy) Kralovic and Jan Kralovic; and his devoted dog, Baby.

A private celebration of Mark's life will be held with his family.

His laughter will echo in the memories of those who loved him.
