Mark D. Tiderman, 72, of Blandon, passed away, surrounded by his loving family, on Saturday, February 14, 2026, at Reading Hospital, West Reading, PA.

Born February 6, 1954, in Reading, Mark was the son of the late Martin D. and Edith M. (Dries) Tiderman. He and his wife, Linda E. (Gallagher) Tiderman, were married on May 8, 2004, in Becker's St. Peter's Lutheran Church, Molltown.

Mark was a 1972 graduate of Fleetwood Area High School. He worked as an installer at Modernfold, Topton, worked in warehouse packaging for 7Up, Reading, and owned his own handyman service, helping older folks with odd jobs and repairs.

Mark was a lifelong member of Becker's St. Peter's Lutheran Church, Molltown, where he served as church council president for many years. He was also instrumental in handling all property and maintenance needs as well as being the sexton for the church.

Mark loved dirt track racing. He wrote a column on racing for Keystone Racing News, Gater Racing News and Area Auto Racing News. He enjoyed spending time at Rehobeth Beach, DE, in his camper, loved music, and, most of all, loved spending time with his grandchildren and attending their sporting events.
