    I was so sad to hear about Marc’s passing. Although it had been quite some time since I had talked with Marc, I have been reflecting on the many fond memories I have of him from when he and my dad were running buddies. Several good conversations and laughs come to mind, and I will remember him as someone I loved to be around. Extending my deepest sympathy to his wife, children, and family.
