    Marc was a contributor to the FML for many years, before and after Dad died. I appreciated his coverage of events in Europe in support of the editorial pages that helped keep the FML going. RIP Marc - you will be missed.

    That is terrible. I am shocked and saddened too.

    I had the pleasure of meeting him and dealing with him in Florida some years back. Proper chap.

    RIP

    Really sorry to hear this. I’d enjoyed his writing for years, though I’d never met him; seemed like a fascinating guy with stories for days.

    Condolences to his family and friends, and I’m sure there are many.

    What a shock !!

    Marc, better known to some here as @Nembo1777 , was an author of some great Ferrari published literature and well as a regular on our little forum.

    His opinions were measured, logical and informative.

    He will be greatly missed by me and many others.

    Wow, sorry to hear that. We butted heads in P&R a few times but he was definitely a true enthusiast and ambassador for the brands. Seeing a lot more of these kinds of posts lately, makes you really think about the important things in life. RIP.
