Heather and family,
I am saddened to learn of Marcus passing. I fondly remember him, we worked together prior to him becoming a police officer. I too am a Retired LEO. Marcus was a top cop and took pride in his work. He had unquestionable integrity.
I recall our conversations about football and as I am an avid fan, and was always proud to call Marcus my friend.
My sincere condolences to you and the entire family. Just know he is patrolling the streets of Heaven.
