Marcos fought a long, tough battle with leukemia and was strong beyond measure. We are thankful his mind was always intact, and his spirits remained high. Even towards the end, he was still making us laugh with his sarcastic self. He was not ready to leave our world and fought with all his might to stay with us, but in the end, he lost his battle as God wanted him Home. He held his head high and went through it all with a bravery we have never witnessed before. His mental toughness was unmatched. In the end he was surrounded with so much love, Marcos will be missed daily, loved through eternity, and our memories with him will live forever.
