He was a Pizza Hut delivery driver who suffered from asthma.
Mark leaves behind four children – Ashleigh, 11, Connor, 10, Thomas, nine and one-year-old and Ivy-Rose.
His distraught fiancee Danielle Stone said: “It’s absolutely heartbreaking for him to die at such a young age.
“He had his whole life ahead of him.
“It just breaks my heart that this has happened.”
Danielle, 31, added: “Mark was very popular.
“He was the sort of person who would do anything for anyone.
“He loved camping and fishing.
BRITAIN’s four million NHS staff are on the frontline in the battle against coronavirus.
But while they are helping save lives, who is there to help them?
The Sun has launched an appeal to raise £1MILLION for NHS workers. The Who Cares Wins Appeal aims to get vital support to staff in their hour of need.
We have teamed up with NHS Charities Together in their urgent Covid-19 Appeal to ensure the money gets to exactly who needs it.
The Sun is donating £50,000 and we would like YOU to help us raise a million pounds, to help THEM. No matter how little you can spare, please donate today here: www.thesun.co.uk/whocareswinsappeal.
“He was such a kind person and was a brilliant father to the kids.”
Mark developed mild coronavirus symptoms at the end of March including a fever and mild cough.
On March 27 he suffered breathing difficulties and collapsed at home in Liverpool.
He was taken to Aintree hospital by ambulance three days later.
But his condition got worse and he was placed on a ventilator in Manchester’s Wythenshawe Hospital.
Danielle said It’s really difficult not being able to see the family during lockdown when he was ill and especially now.
“I want people to know how loving and caring and thoughtful he was and how much everyone cared about him.
“He had a lot of spirit and he was loved by a lot of people.”
The couple had planned to marry soon.
The Pizza Hut where he worked has since been deep cleaned.
