Funeral service for Mr. Marcus R. Brown who passed away on April 7, 2018 will be held on Saturday, April 21, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. at the Wilson Funeral Home, 3000 N. 29th Street, Tampa, Florida with Elder Timothy J. Kemp, Officiating.

He was preceded in death by his loving father Ronnie L. Brown and sister Cristina Brown.

Mr. Emanuel leaves to cherish memories of him with devoted mother, Belinda Brown; son, Tyree (Courtney) Brown; brothers, James Brown and Bobby (Ann) Brown; sisters, Laneishia Brown, Rontishia Brown and LaTasha (Keith) Brown; nieces and nephews Alyssa Singleton, Brandon Brown, Markell Brown, Essica Lovett, Dedrick Henderson, Dominic Brown and Taylor Brown; aunts and uncles, Ever Lee Walker, Malachi (Alice) Brown, Roosevelt (Darlene) Brown, Earl Brown and Laura Brown; a host of other relatives and friends including Larry Smith and Carr Brazelton.

Marcus R. Brown was born on February 11, 1980.  He was the second of six children born to Belinda Brown.  He attended Tampa Bay Tech and ultimately graduated early from Blake Adult School in January 1998 so that he could enlist in the Marine Corp where he served for several years.  He specialized in many fields throughout the years – including DJ’ing, tinting windows, installing stereos, car maintenance, and basically any home or auto repair that was needed.  He ultimately went back to school and became certified as a Laboratory Technician and then proceeded even further to become a Medical Technologist.

He loved music which was true meditation to him and he loved to travel.  He was dedicated to his family and friends and was always willing to lend a helping hand.  He always had a word of advice (whether you asked or not), he was quick witted, always had a joke, and he would not hesitate to say what was on his mind.  He will be truly missed. 

There will be a viewing on Friday April 20, 2018 from 5:-00 – 8:00 p.m. at the Wilson Funeral Home.
