When Marco needed to do something, he did it. He set standards that have not been matched to date.

I remember Marco working his butt off. He set a new standard for those exercises that has never been broken.

SUE AND MIKE, I AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. MY HEART BREAKS FOR YOU AND MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS GO OUT TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. LOVE YOU.

September 2, 2016

My thoughts and prayers go out to you Mr. and Mrs. Romanowski. It's been nearly 20 years since I've seen Marco, but I still remember what a great friend he was through high school. I'll never forget him driving us to school in that huge 4 door car of his. My sincere condolences.

Mike and Sue, Erik let me know. Marco was a great guy. We got to talking a bit while we were working together in the living room and offices for his legs. He was pretty smart. He will be missed. May Marco and both of you find peace.

My deepest condolences go out to Marco's parents and family. I will always remember him for his great sense of humor and how passionately he would debate historic and current events. I can close my eyes and still hear him laugh. I hope that sound will never disappear in my memory.
