Marco has passed

Postby raym » Mon Sep 29, 2014 7:40 am

I saw a post on Marco's girfriends facebook page that I assume means Marco has passed away. It was translated as:

Mamoste Mark went off yesterday.
Wednesday afternoon will be celebrated his last goodbye to Carpaneto Piacentino in his home in via Saragat, about 36 at 15:00.

Sad news :(

Yes, I believe so, his beautiful fiance sent me a friend request on Facebook and it certainly reads that way:

You are the star in my sky.
My lighthouse, my guide.
Shall shine in my heart forever.
Mark, I love you.

Mamoste Mark went off yesterday.

I won't ever forget him. He was a teacher to me, saying in his beautiful voice "this is how it's done". We have lost such a beautiful young man. I hope his family can find peace in the months forward. Vale, Marco.
