Marcus Johnson Memoriam

In Loving Memory of Marcus Johnson
June 26, 1998-March 16, 2013
We still miss the sound of your voice, your humor and laughter, the love and affection you so freely gave, and your smile that lit up every single room you entered.
Days go by. Years go by. But it doesn't lessen the void in our lives without you. The loss of a child and big brother is not finite. We didn't just lose you once. We lose you over and over again a thousand times a day, in a thousand different ways.
Your friends and classmates still talk about you and tell stories of how you made them feel and how you still inspire them. That was just you and your heart of gold, Marcus. Always caring about others. We hope you know what an impact you made on so many lives, and how you continue to make an impact through your Foundation on so many people that you didn't even know.
We miss you more and more as time goes by.
Everything that was, and everything that was yet to be. We miss US.

We love you forever, sweet Marcus.
To infinity and beyond.

Mom, Dad, and Hayden

Wish I'd met him. If he was at all like Hayden, it would have been my honor.
