Marko Jerolimic was born in 1920 as the son of Marco Gerolimich. He died on 24 October 2009, in Astoria, Queens, New York City, New York, United States, at the age of 89.
From the Latin name Marcus , borne by the Evangelist, author of the second gospel in the New Testament, and by several other early and medieval saints. In Arthurian legend, King Mark is the aged ruler of Cornwall to whom Isolde is brought as a bride by Tristan; his name was presumably of Celtic origin, perhaps derived from the element march ‘horse’. This was not a particularly common name in the Middle Ages but was in more frequent use by the end of the 16th century.
