Marcus was born in Schenectady, N.Y. on Sept.10, 1966 to Albert Lewis Friedman and Lillian Rosalie Friedman. He graduated from Niskayuna High School and continued his education at The College of Boca Raton.

He was a well respected and successful realtor and broker for over 30 years.

In 1999, Marcus married Rachel Theresa Ward; the couple settled in Boca Raton and had one child, Marcus Alexander (12 yrs old). Marcus enjoyed the warm sunshine, playing guitar and bodybuilding (winning AAU's Mr. Teen America in 1985 & NPC's National Teen heavyweight division in 1986). Most importantly, Marcus was a devoted father and cherished spending time with his son. He will be remembered for his love of life and adventure, charm and personality, devotion to family and friends, and his warm heart.  He is survived by his wife, son, sisters (Lili Dunn-Virginia, Karen Friedman-New York, Cynthia Grayson-Florida), nieces (Maria Dalton and Anne Grayson), and nephews (Tyler and Connor Dunn). He was well loved by his family and had many friends who will miss his wonderful sense of humor, contagious smile, and outrageous stories.
