    So sorry to hear of Marcus's passing. I played adult hockey with Marcus and he was such a great young man who always had a smile on his face. My sincere condolences to the Miller family.

    I am so sad to hear of Marcus's passing. I use to wait on his mom, and him at Giant Eagle for years. He was such a sweet, and polite young man. So adorable. May he Rest In Peace.

    My heart is so heavy right now. I do not claim to know him, but I do remember meeting him along with his parents after high school plays that my son and DJ were in. And the one thing that stands out in my memory is his smile. He seemed like such a gentle soul. I am so very sorry for your family's loss. My heart is truly breaking for you. May God hold you close at this difficult time.

    Marcus, it is so painful to see you go. You were one of my closest friends for almost 10 years. You were a great friend to me, we had so much fun back in school together. I will always your easy going, fun, high spirited energy that made class go so fast. You were truly a one of a kind person that I and my family will never forget. I will never forget the great and fun times we had together over the years. You will be truly missed by my family and I. Rest in peace Marcus, you will never be forgotten. Your friend, Logan Joyce and the Joyce family

    My heart is heavy for this young soul. Marcus had a smile that would light up a room. There were dozens of nice kids I've known through hockey but he was one kid who would not only say hello, he would always walk up to me to have a conversation. Rest easy Marcus, you will be missed beyond words. Prayers to everyone who loved you. Karen Wagner
