From Those Who Knew Him

I remember when it was one of the first time I got to meet Marc with Kiera in Toronto. We went to this super fancy steak dinner where I was made to clean myself up a bit by Kiera. When I moaned and groaned about it, Marc actually said it would have been hilarious for me to show up in sweats lol. Right then and there, he was in my good books.Crystal

Comforting To His Friends

Marc and I did our MBA together, years later we met in the subway going downtown and of course it broke down. We exited at Bloor and walked together all the way down to King. The walk down we caught up and talked about almost everything. He shared how happy he was that Drew was in his life and how much fun it was to have a son. Marc had that big smile on his face when he was talking and you could feel his happiness. I’ll never forget that walk.&nbsp; Jason

Happiness From Subway Breakdown

The first time I met Marc was when he and Kiera were living in the place near the Gardiner Expressway. Kiera had told me her boyfriend was a shorter gentleman who worked in finance. I was very skeptical originally because everyone like that I had met previously was someone I did not want to spend any time with. However, after meeting Marc, any notions I had of him being a not so nice person were immediately put to rest. We spent a while on the balcony getting to know each other while grilling steaks. We bonded over things like how much we liked wine, and how loud Kiera can be for such a small person. After spending half an hour with him, I knew that he was an amazing person and I was so happy that Marc and Kiera had found each other.&nbsp;Peter Wright

"I remember when me and Drew were playing outside together and his dad joined in and we had so much fun. We sprayed  bugs with him we hung out and he watched us play outside. He was with my brother playing soccer. He was just such a great person."

"Marc was so present, so attentive, so genuinely grateful in that moment. I remember going home that night and saying to my wife, “That guy’s a legend.”"

“Marc may have served on the board for only a short time, but his impact was immediate and lasting. He brought clarity, care, and a genuine desire to make things better for everyone in our community. His presence was deeply felt—and will be deeply missed.”
