He was extremely adventurous, a free spirit with no fear. Marcus broke considerable amounts records between his athleticism and video games. He inspired everyone to reach their own mental, physical and spiritual potential, so inspirational and kind. A very thoughtful man and giving to anyone he could help. His thoughtful, generous life blessed all who knew him.
