He is also survived by his sister Patricia Miller, and brothers David (Pam) Markley, John (Ann) Leppla, Steve Leppla, and Dave Leppla.

Preceded in death by his parents David R. Markley and Wanda (Mizer) Markley-Leppla, stepfather H. Dave Leppla, his brother Andy Markley, and brother-in-law Tom Miller.
