    It is with sadness that I learned today of Marc’s recent passing. Sadly, I don’t have access to the Elsmar Cove these days, but we wouldn’t have QFO without Marc. Long may we be allowed to continue his legacy of helping people.

    Thanks for sharing this Andy. I never met Marc...but have spoken with him by phone. Seemed like quite the gentleman (and intelligent). It was interesting to see that "Elsmar Cove" was one of first 100k websites on the internet. WOW...he must have indeed been a progressive thinker.

    Be well.

    This is shocking...and really sad !
    I had the fortune of being associated with him since the year 2000, first as a member and then as forum mod/admin.
    I always looked up to him as a role model. The QFO was inspired by him and Elsmar...continuing in the spirit of "People Helping People".

    May his soul rest in peace.
