Mark Molson

John Markland "Mark" Molson (28 April 1949 – 19 January 2006)[1][2] was a Canadian professional bridge player from Montreal and Fenton, Michigan.[3]

He was a member of the Molson family and attended Selwyn House School.[4]

Most frequently partnered with Boris Baran, he won the Canada national bridge team Championships seven times,[when?] seven North American Bridge Championships, and came in second as a member of the Canada open team in the 1995 Bermuda Bowl.

On September 5, 1998, his daughter, Jennifer Rose Molson, was born. He married fellow bridge world champion Janice Seamon-Molson, Jennifer's mother, on March 16, 1999. Janice is still a highly ranked Bridge player and Jennifer attended the New York Film Academy for musical theatre.

Molson died suddenly of complications during an operation for a dissected aortic aneurism. This medical issue first surfaced while Mark was playing golf.[citation needed]

He and Baran were inducted into the Canadian Bridge Federation Hall of Fame in 2013.[citation needed]
