In the early morning hours of March 26, 2020, Mark William Taylor left this world to join his most beloved wife Sara who proceeded him in death on March 7, 2006.

He was born on June 7, 1960, and was 59 years old at his death.

Childhood sweethearts Mark and Sara married in the Berkeley Rose Garden on Sept. 10, 1983. They made their home in Oakland where Mark worked as a cook for a probationary youth school and Sara did freelance gardening.

The couple had two sons, William Vincente in 1988 and Jeremy Andrew in 1993.

They lived a quiet and happy life raising their sons and a variety of pets including reptiles, exotic fish, hamsters, dogs, cats and a flock of backyard chickens.

The Taylors loved spending time outdoors, especially at the family property in Hayfork. They were avid bicycle enthusiasts, Sara competing as a downhill mountain bike racer and Mark taking great pride building and maintaining the family fleet.

Sara's passing left a huge void and deep sadness for the entire family.

When the boys left home Mark relocated to Hayfork to begin his new life, but he never recovered from the loss of his wife.

He worked at the Red Bud and at the Hayfork Hotel cooking. Most recently he worked as a caregiver for his father who relocated from the Bay Area in 2018, earning his living cutting firewood and doing odd jobs.

Mark will be remembered for his kind and caring nature, always first to lend a hand wherever needed.

He leaves behind his mother Maralee Hinman (Bill) and his father Jack Taylor, Hayfork; his sons William (Tiara & Khaleb), and Jeremy, Oakland; his sister Heidi Schroder, nephew Tory Lancaster and bonus "son" Kurtis Barthalomew, Hayfork; as well as nephews, a niece, and many cousins in the Bay Area along with many close friends in Hayfork and elsewhere.

Mark will be missed by so many.

We take solace knowing he is dancing with his most beloved and a host of angels in the beautiful gardens in Heaven.

Sweet Dreams Mark.

A celebration of life is planned for Mark's birthday on June 7 at the Berkeley Rose Garden.

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post Posted: 05 Jun 2016 12:00 AM PDT With exacting precision, the surgeon inserted the scalpel above the eyeball and cut out a snotty deposit of fatty tissue. The routine eye-lift was nearly complete when suddenly the patient awoke, suffocating, and began to flop about on the table. The audience gasped. Knowing time was of the essence, the surgeon scooped up the patient in his arms, raced across the stage, and dropped her into a tank of water. She revived. Because she was a fish. Yes, fish eye-lifts exist. As do fin jobs and tail tucks. The operating theater was a mall in Jakarta, Indonesia, where a pet expo was under way. As for the patient, she survived, her formerly droopy eyes now bright and perky. A good thing, too, as this was no ordinary goldfish but rather an Asian arowana, the world's most expensive aquarium denizen, rumored to sell for as mu...

Catching Dory: selling aquarium fish supports coastal livelihoods in Indonesia | npj Ocean Sustainability - Nature.com

Abstract The global marine aquarium trade has created new local markets across the planet, including in Indonesia, now the second-largest exporting country of marine aquarium fish in the world. Participating in the global aquarium trade has been touted as a potentially sustainable addition to fisher livelihoods, but scant data exist showing the numbers of fish coming off the reef and how those fish contribute to income. To determine how participants in the trade incorporate aquarium species in their livelihoods, we examine source-level aquarium fish collecting and trading data in the Banggai Archipelago, a region in Central Sulawesi that has become a significant source for popular aquarium, also known as ornamental, fish species. Using a sustainable livelihoods lens, we examine this data to understand how participants in the aquarium trade both contribute to as well as benefit from the trade and consider how their participation relates to emerging Blue Justice principles.
