Memorial

Mark Rothwell

xx xx, xxxx - xx xx, xxxx

Mark was both a friend and colleague to many people at Ocado. His compassion and willingness to see the best in others will be sorely missed, together with his great humour and generosity. We'd love for Mark's wife, Sam, to be able to share some of our memories of Mark with us, so please tell your stories, upload your photos or simply say farewell.

Condolences

Thinking of you Sam at this incredibly sad time. Not a day has passed, where I haven't thought of Mark and miss him just being there to call on when I need someone to either vent to or discuss work with. He always seemed to make things better, by just being there. Sending lots of love. x

Sending my deepest condolences to Mark's family. Mark was such a calming presence in the office, often making jokes that went completely over my head and always eager to support the team and succeed. The times when Mark's eyes really glistened were talking about his wife and family, his fur baby and Ocado, you could see the pride bursting out of him when he would explain more about the company during interviews, "we are all cogs in this big machine".

My deepest condolences to Mark's family. Mark always had a smile on his face and would show a genuine interest in everyone he met. Whether it be a chat in the lift or help with a problem, he would always make time for you. He was so approachable and kind. It was a pleasure to have known him and he will be greatly missed.

Mark was always happy to help and support with any query I had, with a smile on his face. I never heard him complain about anything and his calm demeanour was always reassuring to see. Mark was indeed a genuine, lovely man and will be missed!! My thoughts and prayers are with Sam and the family.

My deepest condolences to Mark's wife and family. I never worked directly with Mark but I know that those in our team who did thought very highly of him and he will be hugely missed. Rest in peace Mark. It's moving to see so many people write such lovely things - truly shows what a kind person we have lost.

My deepest condolences go out to Mark's wife and family. Mark was one of the most genuine souls I've had the pleasure to work with. He was warm, kind, generous and genuinely interested in everybody that he met. I'm going to sincerely miss having a giggle whenever we would bump into each other - his quick wit would always get a smile however bad the day. He always talked so highly and lovingly of Sam - my thoughts and prayers are with all that love him.

Sending Sam all our prayers and thoughts at this time. We are devastated at the loss of this amazing father-figure, brilliant 'older brother', friend and warm, funny, kind-hearted man. It must be so tough for you. Hopefully reading some of our memories will confirm to you how much he was loved, cherished and honoured here at work. We will miss him.

My deepest condolences to Mark's wife, family and friends. What a wonderful gentleman he was. I echo the sentiments of my colleagues - fetching a cuppa in the kitchen won't be the same without Mark's warm smile, quick wit and sympathetic ear! Mark was one of life's good guys and he will leave a legacy of generosity, good humour and above all, kindness, for many years to come.
