Great Guy!

I worked with Marc for many years at Gannett and he was always very kind and helpful. We had some great times when things in the newspaper business were good and as things got bad I always felt that Marc had the very best outlook for the future. He will be missed. Prayers for Marc and his family.

Rest in Peace

Great Memories of him!
