Born on April 5, 1989, in Richmond, Virginia, Marquis was a beacon of light from an early age.

Marquis was a son, a brother, a friend, a confidant, and an inspiration to many. His impact extended beyond bloodlines — he became a pillar of support to his community and a source of encouragement to those navigating life’s hardships. Whether through mentoring others, sharing heartfelt advice, or simply lending a listening ear, he touched countless lives in quiet, meaningful ways.
He leaves behind not just his immediate family, but a wide circle of extended relatives, lifelong friends, and grateful acquaintances who mourn his loss deeply and celebrate the beautiful soul he was.
Though Marquis’ journey on earth has come to an end, the love he gave, the lessons he taught, and the memories he created will continue to live on. His spirit remains in every heartfelt story, every act of kindness he inspired, and every soul he helped uplift during his time with us.
