On April 15, 2018, the world lost the most gentle giant, Marcus Lee Brockman.

For most of his life, strangers were always quick to notice his mountainous height; but for those who knew him, his physical size seemed minuscule compared to his enormous heart. As a child, he was diagnosed with Perthes Disease, a condition that he dealt with throughout his life that gave him a rare ability for extraordinary empathy. Marcus was an ally to the underdog: on the playground, as a coach, as a friend, and as a brother, Marcus was always there to give love where love was needed. 

His booming presence always filled a room. His infectious energy and sense of humor can never be replaced in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
