Publish in a newspaper
Marquis was born to Tommy R. Hardeman and Lula M. Reed on September 30, 1980. He attended public schools in the Austin Independent School District.
Marquis met his wife, Wanda Mitchell in 2001, and the love story began. Over the next 21 years, they spent time learning each other, creating memories, and growing deeper in love with one another. Marquis was the HERO to Wanda, and she was his SHERO. He lived a life of action when it came to LOVE. He shared great times with his friends, family and co-workers. The hugs he gave will truly be missed. He was a ray of sunshine all the time. He enjoyed listening to music, especially Country music. He also loved to eat, and enjoyed his favorite, enchiladas.
Marquis is preceded in death by his paternal grandfather, John Hardeman, Sr.; and both maternal grandparents, Clyde Clark, Jr. and Bulah Clark.
Left to cherish his memories, his loving wife, Wanda Mitchell of Austin, TX; his parents, Lula M Reed and Tommy Hardeman, both of Austin, TX; his dad, Darrell Augustine (Brenda) of Kyle, TX· four siblings, LaTysha Demps of Killeen, TX, Lawrence Demps of Austin, TX, Tiffany Demps of Pflugerville, TX and Tommy Hardeman of Houston, TX· his grandmother, Ardia Hardeman of Austin, TX· mother in-law, Amy Mitchell of Austin, TX, and a host of other relatives, friends and co-workers.
Psalm 23:1-6
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
AMEN
