It is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to our friend and colleague Mark Lehman. He served Texas REALTORS® for more than two decades and was the Association’s Vice President of Governmental Affairs for Texas REALTORS® when he retired at the end of 2019.
Mark had a warm and gentle nature about him. He captured our hearts every time he walked into a room. Whether talking to a colleague, friend, REALTOR® or elected officials, he always made everyone feel important and valued.
His gift for writing, his eloquent presentational style and his vast knowledge of politics and legislative issues created a culture of involvement and engagement in advocacy for the REALTOR® organization. Texas REALTORS® has grown into the organization it is because of Mark’s leadership.
Mark will always be remembered for his vast contribution to Texas REALTORS®. Texas REALTORS® has grown into one of the most respected organizations in the country because of his generosity, creativity and kindness of spirit. It was an honor and privilege to work closely with Mark because of his political acumen and the guidance and wisdom he shared with all of us.
Upon his retirement, Texas REALTORS® created the Lehman Local Board Government Affairs Achievement Award that is presented annually to a local Board of REALTORS® that has demonstrated excellent in fundraising and grassroots advocacy. He was a valued member of the Texas REALTOR® family and will truly be missed by everyone who knew him.
