thanks for linking to this, Jeff. I know people who must have known Marc…I will spread the prayer request for him and for his family among my friends & family.
Considering the spiritual climate here in RI these days, Marc was rare, indeed. Odd that without your having mentioned this, I may never have known that Marc had been here, or that he had gone Home.
I was fortunate to have attended the beautiful Mass on the feast of Corpus Christi when Marc received his knighthood. A truly noble young man who will be sorely missed.
Thanks for posting this tribute.

Well, I’ve met my daily quota of cry like a baby now.
With such a profound dedication to self sacrifice, he would have made a fine priest.

Perhaps someday he will be canonized. This is a beautiful witness. Thanks for the post.

Oh, how sad….but he gave his life to save his little sister.
I know about the Franciscans of the Immaculate in Maine, NY. I’ve been down there several times.
I’m sure he would have made a great friar, and a great priest.
Eternal Rest grant unto him, O Lord…..
