 His children: Dominic, Daniel, Donovan, Dorian and Samara.

 His Nephews: Jaden and Logan.

 His Nieces: Kristiana and Bette.

 Favorite Memories:

 

Charrice: I remember him loving his key cars. He loved playing with them. That and I will always remember his laugh and smile.

 

Eric: When Markie was little, me and my buddies would take him to the pool. We would toss him around. He was never really in the water. When we finally moved out of Navy Housing and went to our Carlos Pl. house… He jumped in the pool and almost drowned! Before I could even react, our cousin Ricky jumped in and saved his life! They were all of 5 or 6 years old! That little $#*! Thought he could swim!

 

A few years later, I must have been 16… I forgot my  keys and couldn’t get in the house. I  walked to the back door to see if it was locked. I could see my brother and sister, they were curled up to each other, “Markie! Charrice!” I yelled, while knocking on the door. Then I hear, from a very Panicked Markie “Ate! He knows our Names!”

 

I yell back! “Of course I know your Names!”

 

They were watching scary movies and Markie thought I was trying to break in the house. Haha!
