Marc was always such a great guy. Always had a smile on his face and would laugh at the silliest things. Professionally, he was always supportive and get the job done kind of guy. Having worked with Marc for three years I can truly say he was a gentleman and a scholar.
I'm so sorry for your loss and maybe God watch over your family.

Blessed Be.

We remember our one visit with you two in Germantown, MD, when you told us you were engaged. It was a new beginning and time for happiness. Looking at the pictures reminds us of how that happiness had grown over time. We are more sorry than words can convey and nothing can soften the pain, but we will remember all of you in our prayers.

I only knew Marc from seeing him around FLETC, but I always thought he was a great guy who could have fun, but who was also very serious about taking caring of the business at hand. I know that I will remember him fondly every time I go to Building 90 for a CITP graduation since that is where I saw him most often.

Marc was my class coordinator when I was a student at FLETC. Whenever we saw him coming, we thought for sure we were in trouble! It was funny to learn later, though, when I met Marc as a peer, that he was not as stern or serious as he'd tried to be in front of students. Rather, Marc always had a warm smile, a funny joke, and a thoughful word. I am so glad I had the chance to get to know him. He was a kind friend who will be missed by all.

I had known and worked with Marc for years. Although I didn’t know him outside of work, Marc was always the consummate professional, but at the same time conducted business in a relaxed, friendly manner. Marc was always good for a laugh. My prayers are with his family, especially his precious little daughter.
