Marcus's Obituary

Marcus James White was born June 19,1988 to Sharene White and Hollis Barry in South Haven, Michigan. Marcus James White departed this earth on April 14, 2023.

Marcus was a loving kind helpful gentleman to all who crossed his path. He was always willing to lend a helping hand at all times. His heart was so big and full of love for everyone. He enjoyed hauling junk, fishing, gardening and fixing on things.

He also loved his music and played it loud. He loved his family gatherings, especially playing with his niece whom he loved dearly. He was a helper and servant to all. We will never forget how much of a jokester he was always doing something just to put a smile on your face. Though his life was cut short, he had so many dreams and visions in his head that will go undone and unfulfilled. Marcus ran a lawn care and t-shirt business.

Though we will miss him dearly, we know that God had other plans and he doesn’t make any mistakes. Marcus was a longtime member at Second Baptist Church under the leadership of Pastor Dureya Gibson.

His Special Niece; Shar’Mya, a Special Aunt; Marilyn White, Special Friend; Peggy Hamilton and a host of uncles, aunts, cousins, and friends.
