Mark Blowers Obituary

Mark C Blowers

September 4, 2025

Mark C Blowers, age 60, Johnson City, TN, met his Savior face-to-face September 4, 2025, after an 8 year battle with cancer. Mark partnered with his father, Malcolm, in their unique home furnishings store, Main Street Antiques and Mercantile, in Johnson City. Early in his career, Mark was engaged in online sales. He later became president of Jensen Smith, an innovative sports wear company known for its shotgun wash clothing. After closing the Johnson City store in 2015, he returned to online sales. Mark was known for his extensive knowledge of imported antique and Persian rugs, for his ability to create beautiful surroundings when choosing home furnishings, and especially for his ability to relate to people. He will be deeply missed by father, Malcolm, and mother, Sally. He is also survived by brothers Todd and Chad, four nephews and six nieces. Burial in Rochester, NY with services at graveside.

May God bless you in this time of sorrow. I knew Mark from Covenant college. He was a blessing to all that knew him. He deeply cared about others. He will be greatly missed here in this world; however, those of us who are Christians are rejoicing in the knowledge that we will see him again, perfected, healed and praising our savior. Until that day, stay strong in faith and hope

Mark was a great friend of mine. Early on he introduced me to some tremendous rock bands (Rainbow) and he was incredibly inspiring in the area of automobiles. We became friends at Ben Lippen School and this friendship helped me to learn more about Mark Blowers. He held a certain place in my heart that can never be replaced. We talked about everything from cars to fashion. He was a true friend.

I hope that people reading this will be blessed with having such a great friend.

My heart is filled with sorrow within passing. It is also filled with the gratitude I have to God for giving me such an outstanding friend.

I had many fun memories with Mark. We attended college together at Montreat and lived on the same hall. As you can imagine we were mischievous but managed not to get into any serious trouble. He was full of life and of course always made everybody laugh. He always let me borrow his BMW which was a much cooler car than my Pinto. I hate that he had to struggle with cancer his last eight years, but I know he´s with our Savior now and his struggles are over. It won´t be long now and I´ll see him again in our Fathers House where everything is made right.

Mel and Sally I'm so sorry about Mark. While I haven't talked to him in many years, he and your family played a big part in my life in my teenage years. Mark was a good friend that I have a lot of great memories with. I'll miss him.
