Washington State Funeral Directors Association - WSFDA

It is with great sadness that the Washington State Funeral Directors Association shares the passing of Mark W. Kramer, a lifelong Whitman County resident and respected funeral director, who passed away on April 17, 2026, surrounded by his family.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to Mark’s family, friends, staff, and all those whose lives were touched by his kindness and dedication.
