Marcus was, is, and ALWAYS will be an amazing young man. Prayers to family, and friends. May God comfort ALL with the comfort, and peace that surpasses ALL understanding!! I met him at Steak N Shake when Serenity, my daughter, got a job there. He was a great friend to her, and like a son to me. He had a great work ethic, and was also a fun friendly guy! You will be missed, but not forgotten. Fly high young man. Rest in Paradise. We shall meet AGAIN, of that I am sure! Looking for that smile, and laugh. Love you, dearly. Memories will be thought on forever!

My little brother, my angle, my heart. I'm still fighting with the fact that you're gone it seem unreal to me. I will never get another chance to hug you, hear your voice over the phone telling me you love, and miss me. I going to miss our conversations about your relationships, and talks about life. Someday when god bless me with a kid/son I will name him after You in honor of you, this is my last promise to you little brother. I love you so much. Rest up big head
