Marc was a charmer. Both our young daughters, at the time, wanted to grow up and marry him. We will remember Marc's sense of humor, his intelligence, and his impish grin. Our hearts go out to you. Love, Jan, Jeff, Julia, Natalie, and Nic

My heart goes out to all of Marc's family and loved ones. Knowing you from the Water Street days (the '60,s were magical there.) Marc has come in and out of my life over the years, but always felt comfortable to be on my doorstep no matter how many years had gone by. He would have some great adventure to share. You each mean something special to me, and I will keep you in my heart. Now, and as the years go on.

Dear Family,
Please know that I will forever hold a special place in my heart for Marc. We have spent many hours in the past discussing his love of family and the complexity of life. He was truly a warm spirit and a gift to us all.

I am saddened to learn of Marc's passing. I remember him most as our neighborhood paperboy. He was always good to us, and my husband and I enjoyed the brief conversations we had with Marc when he stopped by to collect for the paper. Johanna Vaughn

Dear Avery family and friends, I am deeply saddened to learn of Marc's death. I was a classmate of Marc's at OHS. Sadly I have not seen Marc in many years now. He was quite the character in school and a good guy. My thoughts and prayers be with all who were touched my Marc.
