Thank you Polly and Wilma. He was my uncle Mark. Man I missed him so much at Thanksgiving. He was my Daddies brother. I used to go to the upholstery shop when I was a kid and I loved the place and have VERY fond memories of it. Uncle Mark used to keep me in jewelry he found in the stuff he used to fix. Nothing expensive or anything like that but it sure was to me. ha ha I always loved jewelry. He gave me my first sewing machine when I was very little, under 10. It was a toy one and man I loved it. Then he gave me another one when I was about 16 years old and that one was a real one in a cabinet. How I wish I’d kept that machine now! He sure will be missed that’s for sure but I know he’s in a much better place now. I was there when he passed away and it was so peaceful. So thankful that God didn’t allow him to lay and suffer for a long time! Just so thankful for that!

Marcus was a” dear ” friend of my brother-Claude (Bo) Cooper and our family. Now he and Bo are together again. May God confort and bless Joyce and Marcus’ family.

Marcus was a member of the class of 1951 at Ernest Ward. There are not many of us left. Marcus did upholster work for me and I also bought furniture from him. He was always nice and fair with me. He will be missed.
