Not sure what to say?

Marcel,

You are going to be missed in so many places. I will carry fond memories of our time at the Scottsdale show, kayaking, the river cleanup, motorcycling and at Mag's Ham Bun.

You will always be with me as I do the activities we shared.

See you in the future.

Jeff

dearest Marc,

Even as a young man in 1975, you knew who you were, and never tried to be anything else. You were unaffected, authentic, and clearly "in love with being alive".

We were babies then, just beginning our lives. It’s easy to romanticize the past – and through the haze of reminiscence, make it perhaps more than it was – but it’s irrefutable fact that you cared for me in a way that no one ever had, and I treasured every moment we spent in each other’s...

Marcel:
We never had a conversation, but I saw that twinkle, and felt the powerful plucks of those bass-strings when you sent your vibes through all the hearts of the St. Pat's congregations. Keep strumming the strings of our hearts; we will feel them; we will sing back.

Marcel,
A little bit of each of us died along with you, you are missed so much. I hope in time we will be able to fill the empty spaces with the JOY that you knew and understood throughout your life. But for now, the empty spaces just echo with your laugh that we can no longer hear and that sparkle that we no longer see in your eyes.
There seems to be no one perfect way to mourn your passing, nor is there just one way to celebrate the too short yet full life that you lived,...

Marcel,
From another one of the many lives you have touched...there are so many wonderful memories of the "Casa Days". Heaven has gained the "laughter angel". God Bless, you will be missed.

Marcel, you are truly the love of my life, my soulmate. I have never met anyone before that made me so complete. I thank God for giving me an angel on earth and I know in my heart you will be watching me from above until we can be together again. Thank you for introducing me to so many great Friends who are also missing you.
You are my sweetheart and I love you.
Nancy

Marcel--
You were a wonderful part of my life at the Franciscan Renewal Center (our retreats)(using too much helium for the balloons for Easter Sunrise Mass),& "Our Gang" staying in La Jolla for a few weeks during the summer at Steve Corrigan's parents home. We all had a wonderful time. You gave all of us your gift of love, laughter, music, friendship, your mom's Indian Fry Bread & sitting around listening to Pink Floyd. I am glad that we had a reunion in in 1996 of the "Casa Gang" &...

Marcel - I will always remember you as the little boy next door who played with my brothers. God grant you peace. Barbara Curiel-Waddoups

Marcel,you were amazing with all your talents and gifts. Yet you were a quiet presence, never pushing your way on anyone. Thank you for your graciousness to me. It was so appreciated. Sorry I never got to see the wilderness through your eyes as we had talked about. Will miss your wink and smile at Mass. Death too soon...you will be missed. Clairlyn
