Dear Auntie Lois and Family,
Uncle Marc will be missed very much. He was a really kind, gentle, intelligent, talented and loving man. He shared his knowledge and gifts freely, not the least of which were his musical talents. Encouraging others all along the way. He was always inclusive and approachable with a warm loving smile.
I am proud to be a part of this family and want to honour this generation, which is special in so many ways. There are so many stories I remember being told time and again about the humorous circumstances and situations that Uncle Marc and his siblings, cousins and friends found themselves in. Indeed, I relay many of these stories to my family now.
We are a family rich in love, experiences, sharing and laughter. Uncle Marc modelled the way for us, now it's our responsibility to carry on, love life and laugh, even though it is not always easy. It seems to me this was his approach. Uncle Marc: Thank you for showing us that Life is Beautiful, It's Ok to Enjoy, and Everything is Alright! Thank you for your laughter that brought happiness to everyone! See you again sometime on the other side!
Love,
Deanne, Kris and Emily Holthe
