View all 58 ReflectionsMarcus was my handgun and AR-15 instructor. He was an excellent teacher and shooter. He was safety focused competent and patient. I was proud of witnessing him demonstrating his skills in IDPA and Friday Night Steel events in which he consistently placed in the top rankings.
I enjoyed his 2 beautiful dogs, meeting his family, his instruction and his support. I pray for peace and comfort for his family, fellow Officers, and students.
God Bless!
I am saddened to learn of his passing.
