Marcus Mayeda Obituary

Marcus C. Mayeda

1989 ~ 2025

Marcus C. Mayeda, passed away unexpectedly on August 21, 2025. From the moment Marcus arrived, he was full of possibilities. Marcus lived a life marked by empathy, creativity, and determination. He attended West High School, active in the wrestling programs, placing twice at the Utah State Wrestling Tournaments. He proceeded to obtain his nursing degree and loved being able to provide care to those in need. He was passionate about cooking, sports, music/art and spending time with his family, friends, and dogs. He competed in many fishing and bowling tournaments, spent time golfing and camping with friends and can be remembered sitting at the piano improvising and playing various styles of music. He had an infectious laugh that could bring smiles to a crowd and was often the one jumping up to cheer on others. There is a silence now, we miss his laugh and the mess he often made, and though he is gone from sight, Marcus remains with us in memory, in spirit, and in our hearts with a love that has no end. He is survived by his parents Brian and Diana, sisters Monique and Makendy, Aunt Shauna (Brian) and Uncle Craige.

A celebration of Marcus's life will be on Tuesday, September 9, 2025 from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm at Starks Funeral Parlor, 3651 South 900 East, Salt Lake City. Guests are encouraged to use the parking on the north side of the building.

Marcus was the kind of person that was everyone´s friend. He was a go with the flow kinda guy. Always willing to help and make your life easier. I never heard him say anything hurtful about a patient or Co worker. He just wasn´t that kind of person. He was easy going, hilarious and seemed to make it all look easy. He was one of a kind. Marcus, thanks for being a great friend to everyone and always being there for all you met RIP

Marcus was one of the kindest individuals I have ever met. I never encountered him without a smile on his face. He was a truly good soul who always had his patients´ best interests at heart. His compassion and positivity will be deeply missed.
