My Dear "Son" (brother), When people say,"Time heals all wounds" that in some cases is not true.Today is the Ninth anniversary of your death,and the pain is still fresh and new to me.I miss you more and more as time goes on.Things like Christmas and Thanksgiving are killers for me.You are so missed by all your family and friends. No one has forgotten or stopped loving the funniest,most kind hearted,silliest and most handsome guy we have ever known.I am so sorry I couldn't make it to your resting place today. Did not sleep all night and didn't want to drive.My heart has such a huge hole in it,there is no one or nothing that can fill it. You are always going to be loved by everyone who knew you,and that is a lot,considering the hundreds of people at your wake.And loved to the moon and back by me....always and until we meet again. You are with our parents and grandparents now and when it's time,the rest of us will happily be all together again. God took you way too soon and that,I don't understand.He takes a lot of people way too soon,I know,but you never think that tragedy would affect your family. I love and miss you.You were my brother,more like a son,and my best friend. We could tell each other anything and it was a silent understanding that it would go no further.Nine years without you.God bless you,Marc,and please behave yourself up in Heaven.I will be by your resting place very soon.Hey,how did you like your birthday flowers? Hope Mom liked hers,too.Your birthday,she gets flowers,too.Next month on the 11th of March,is the anniversary of her death.So you both will be getting more flowers!! I love you and don't ever forget that. Lissa

To Steve C. Marc was at his job and he was putting up gutters. No hard hat on,just his bandana. While he was leaning to the right on the ladder,the bottom of the ladder slid to the left and he fell between 15-20 feet to the frozen hard dirt.It was February 12th,2009. He was brain dead. He was kept alive by machines,11 in all. After 12 days,he died on his own,probably knowing somehow,that we did not want to do this.He died at 4:00a.m. Of Feb.24th,2009. His blood pressure just kept dropping,and there was nothing the trauma center 1 at Good Samaritan Hospital could do anymore. We were scheduled that same morning at 10:00 a.m to pull the plug on him after we said our goodbyes.But,I believe God had his hand in this,along with Marc,to die on his own. His brain was literally mush. If he had lived,he would have been blind,deaf,wouldn't be able to talk,no sense of touch,in other words,you could go up to him and touch him and he wouldn't feel nothing,he would be tubed fed. He would have been just a body with no brain in him. You know Marc.THERE WAS NO WAY HE WOULD WANT TO BE LIKE THAT!! He wouldn't be living.And he would be like that for the rest of his years,on life support and he wouldn't even know it. We are still reeling over this.He was more like my son than my brother.I am STILL in therapy,on meds,see a therapist,a psychiatrist and a neurologist.!!! And my mom died on March 11th,2016 of cancer in Villa Scallabrini nursing home in Northlake.There were other deaths as well,as many of our friends died,my aunt,and my uncle..Too many to mention. Marc and my Mom are buried side by side at Elmwood Cemetery in River Grove.And I will be buried next to my Mom,when the time comes.This whole last 10 years have been Holy hell!! One after another losing their lives.But Steve,I thank you for your concern and condolences.Sorry I didn't see it sooner.I still go to their graves on a regular basis and holidays,too.I'm having problems letting go,especially Marc.It's so surreal,you know? But you want to keep in touch with me,I'm here. God bless you,Steve. Love,Melissa

My dear Marc, As you know,this is the 8th anniversary of your death,a day that none of us will ever forget. Seems like 8 days to me,nowhere near 8 years.And now the death of our Mom last March 11th,2016.And you today,Feb.24th,in the year 2009.I just wrote in here a few minutes ago,but it disappeared somehow. But I wanted to let you,Mom and Dad and the other S we have lost,that I can't wait to be reunited with you again.Marc "my son" but in reality my brother,I miss you so much.There was and is no one else like you.I hope the other message still gets to you that I just wrote.I love you and I will never,ever forget you,as my only "child".

Dear Marc, As you probably know,Mom has terminal cancer.We don't know how long she has,because the lymph nodes affected are all swollen in her chest and they found a mass of some kind behind her breast bone.She would not probably survive the biopsy,since it involves the lungs.So now we are going to lose her,too.She is in the hospital now because she has bronchitis and they are treating her for that before she goes back to Villa Scalabrini,where she was living before the hospital stay.Marc,please try to help her.She is totally helpless and she is really scared!!She keeps saying she is never going home,but I think when the time comes,she can get hospice care at home.I don't know for sure.She also has a blood clot in her leg,which they are dissolving with medication.Please help us with a miracle.Or give her a sign that you are by her side.I held her hand and Isaw a tear coming out of her left eye,as we just sat in silence.We don't want her to die,Marc.We all miss and love you as much as ever.This was the worst letter I have written to you,and I'm sorry for that.But she needs your presence of some kind,so she won't be so afraid to die.I will come to you at the cemetery soon,I promise.I love and miss you with all of my heart forever and ever!Dont ever doubt that,my "son". I love you, Lissa

You were MY boy and I still don't get why He had to take you.But we will all never know until I see you again.I can't wait until that day happens.But,until then , keep them laughing up there in Heaven!

November 27, 2014

My dear "son" marc,,So today we had another thanksgiving without you.And again,we were all missing you.As much as I know you would not want us to be sad, and to go on with our lives,that is a total impossibility.You were taken way too soon and all of us are still in denial that you are never coming back.The pain is very hard to handle and it's there every minute of every day.I just wish I was there to catch you.I always tried to be there for you and I was but this one time when you needed me,I couldn't help you.And for that I feel guilty,like Ithe one time when you REALLY needed me,I could not help you.So to that Happy Thanksgiviing in Heaven and I will see you again .I love and miss you and as soon as I can get over to you,I will be there. Love you very much,my brother. Love your sister,Lissa

It's hard to believe 5 years have passed. Seems like yesterday, yet also a lifetime ago. I miss you Marc. Miss your smile, the way you could laugh just like Burt Reynolds, the many many jokes you told, how you would lick my face, and mostly your upbeat, positive attitude in everything. We shall meet again , my friend. Until then, just know you are loved and missed.

To our innocence and youth and pure sweet true love...I think of you often... I will love you forever!

June 8, 2011

My Dearest Marc,I love you and miss you still.You were my "son" and my best friend.I miss our afternoons together when you told Mom you were working.And I lied to her to protect you.You were always my joy and happiness when you would drop by.You put major sunshine in my day!!! My life will never,ever be the same without you.I cannot and will not ever get over your death.It was unnecessary,surreal and still a living nightmare.I will love you always!!!!! Love,your sister Lissa

Dear Marc, Not a day goes by that I don't think about you. This world is a cold and lonely place without the laughter you brought. We had many many nights where we laughed so hard we cried, my face would hurt from smiling. You got me through some really tough times in my life and right now I don't know how I do it without you. You are loved and missed by many. I love you with my whole heart and miss you everyday. Happy Birthday Sweetie, I love you always and forever.

I am still in shock that Marc is not here with us anymore. He was too young to leave this world and he is missed by us all. He had a big heart and was always willing to help. He also never stopped smiling no matter what was going on in his life.

January 25, 2010

I was so fortunate to know Marc very well. I knew him for the funny, outgoing person everyone knew, and also as the caring, loving, sincere, sweet guy he really was. I hadn't seen or talked to him for many years but I always wished the best for him. Hearing about this truly broke my heart. My deepest sympathy to the Bassi family.

I had the wonderful pleasure of teaching Marc at River Grove School. Marc always put a smile on my face. He was a talented ball of energy. My nick name for him ( and he knew it) was "Large Mouth Bass" as he always had the gift of gab. He often came back to school to visit when he had a few spare moments.This was a joy.
What a neat kid, kind young man, and his parting was a terrible loss to everyone. Marc is one I will never forget. My heart goes out to his family. My thoughts and prayers are with you now and always. A.B.

Marc was my best friend, my heart and my world for the past two years. He got me through a rough time in my life and no matter what he summoned a smile, when I didn't think i would ever smile again. Without him my heart feels heavy. I feel empty and miss him with all my heart. He mentored my children, he befriended my friends. He is an amazing person and I really wish there were more people like him around. When I get to Heaven, Heaven will be Heaven because Marc will be there. My deepest sympathies to the Bassi family, you all are such great people and if there is ever anything I can do, please don't hesitate.

Mark Corso

March 1, 2009

Looking through the backyard of my life, I can plainly see Marc’s influence in so many things I still manage to surround myself with. He is in my mind, in my philosophy and in my heart. He lived with so much passion and I think the only thing that was difficult for Marc was his inability to hide that passion - he loved what he loved. I am richer for having known him and lessened for having lost him.

Marty and family,
I remember first meeting your brother in 1983 when a friend of mine knew him from Bethlehem Lutheran...she had a crush on him!!! I remember he had a camo jacket on and spoke of growing up and joining the Army. Marty, I then had some classes with you in high school. Since hearing of Marc's accident and now this tragic loss, you and your family have been in my thoughts and prayers. You will remain there. There simply are no words. I am truly, truly sorry.

Sincerely,
