Mark Douglas Reeves, Sr., 61, of Charleston, South Carolina, entered into eternal rest on Sunday, November 3, 2024. He was born on April 27, 1963 in Charleston, SC, a son of Brenda Walker Reeves and the late Hoap C. Reeves, Jr. He married the love of his life, Ellis Aiken Reeves, in 1988. He graduated from Middleton High School, then went on to Trident Technical College, where he graduated with a degree in Machine Tool Technology. He worked for Utilities Construction Company then went on to help run his family's restaurant, Reeves Bar-B-Que & Catering. After deciding to end the restaurant journey, Mark went on to work for FedEx Express for over 20 years. Over the years of serving his community in a variety of ways, he made many friends who became like family and grew to love Mark. Mark enjoyed playing with his grandchildren, watching sports - especially Steelers football, and working in the yard. Mark was most fondly known as "PaPa" and he would tell you his family was the most important part of his life - he loved his grandchildren more than life itself.
He is survived by his loving wife of 36 years, Ellis Aiken Reeves, mother, Brenda W. Reeves, daughters, Elizabeth Hill (Matthew) and Kathryn Jones (Domonic); son, Mark Reeves, Jr.; grandchildren, Jamal, Taliana, Owen, Taylor, Ella, and Tristan; siblings, Susan D. Reeves, Hoap "Chip" C. Reeves, III (Karen), George S. Reeves, and Kathleen "Kathy" R. Howe (Ricky); as well as, many nieces and nephews.
The family will receive friends on Wednesday, November 6, 2024 in the J. Henry Stuhr, Inc. West Ashley Chapel from 5:00 pm until 7:00 pm. His memorial service will be held Thursday, November 7, 2024 in the West Ashley Chapel at 11:00 am.
Memorial donations can be made in Mark's memory to Charleston Animal Society or Pet Helpers.
