AUGUSTA — Mark Burns Macomber, 80, formerly of Dixfield, died at the Maine Veterans’ Home, Augusta, where he had resided for 18 months.
He was born May 12, 1938, in Dixfield, a son of Floyd P. and Bernice (Frost) Macomber Sr. He was a graduate of Dixfield High School and for a short time following his discharge from the U.S. Navy in 1959, was employed at Stowell McGregor.
He preferred the simpler, quieter moments that life has to offer and found great enjoyment in riding around the countryside and traveling throughout New England with his brother in a motor home.
He is survived by his brother, Floyd P. Macomber Jr., of Dixfield; a sister, Patricia Sargent, of Dixfield; and adopted nephew, Robert Haynes, of Dixfield. He was predeceased by his parents and two sisters, Blandine Macomber and Ruth Haynes.
