Mark Michael Horning, 64, of Osburn, Idaho, passed away suddenly on March 13, 2026 while skiing, doing what he loved most. Born on April 19, 1961 in Kellogg, Idaho at the old Wardner Hospital, Mark was the son of Harold and Betty (Eid) Horning.

He is survived by his daughter, Kaitlyn Horning and her husband Alexander Benitez of Osburn; his mother, Betty Horning of Osburn; his brother, Bruce (Kim) Horning of Graton, California; and his granddaughter, Ophelia Benitez.
