Under the conviction of the Holy Spirit, Marcus took the most important step of his life and accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior on December 2, 1990. He united with First Baptist Church, South Inglewood under the pastorate of Reverend Thomas E. Sweeney, Sr.

Marcus worked for several years at Metro Water Department. He was very personable, full of joy, always smiling and never met a stranger. He was kind hearted and always thought of others. He deeply loved his family and his contagious laugh will continue to enrich our lives.

He leaves to cherish his memory: a doting and devoted mother, Bernice Weakley; affectionate sisters, Sarita Morris, Joyce (Michael) Smith, Laritha Fentress; loving brothers, Leandrews Edmondson and Donnie Edmondson; a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends; a devoted cousin, Delmas (Bull) Jordan; special friends, William (Fatty) Marsh and Dallas Hall.
