Marc Roger Mustafa

For those of you not familiar with Marc’s life, he was born in 1953 in Indiana. He attended Purdue and mainly studied flying.  After graduation he flew for several companies in West Texas and then into Dallas. That’s where Marc met his wife, Diana. He was flying Mary Kay of Mary Kay Cosmetics, and she was working for the CFO. And no... the plane was not pink! He flew for the company for several years and then Marc & Diana moved to Colorado.  

Marc started at Southwest Airlines and finally felt this was the job he had always dreamt of. After the horrible 9/11 attack, he found out four of the company’s ramp men were involved in the attack. Marc felt he needed to do more than get his passengers from one city to another, so he also became a Flight Deck Officer. He continued pursuing his passion for flying and training for Flight Deck Officer. In fact, in August 2014, Marc received the Federal Flight Deck Officer Service Recognition Award from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. 

In recent years since retirement, he found the most pleasure in spending time with, and training his treasured dogs.

Marc's viewing will be held on Friday, May 26th from 6pm-8pm at Heflebower Funeral & Cremation Services, 8955 S. Ridgeline Blvd. Ste. #100, Highlands Ranch, CO 80129.
