Vickie:

So many memories are flashing before me and I just want to tell you and his family how much Marcus will be missed. As you know, he was a smart and sensitive man who taught me alot. Especially about caring for patients on dialysis. He made it much more real to me and I was able to make better decisions as a manager becasue of it. He loved his family and especially you and talked about you all during our frequest talks. I will miss his sense of humor the most. If you can, play an Elton John song during her services. I think he would like that. Take care.

Somewhere a journey begins at the end of the worldly existence we know, Somewhere a path stretches over the stars, and rivers of memories flow, Somwhere a silence is heard far away and the brightness of day fills the night, Where the trails of life are resolved into peace when a soul finds its way to the light. May it comfort you to know your loved one is at peace. May God stay with you now and always through this trying time. Sincerely, Kimberly Tate and Family
