Throughout his life, obesity was an on-going battle that contributed to a wide range of health issues.

After surviving a collapsed lung at the age of 11, Marquay became intellectually disabled and struggled with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia later in life.

His family would describe him as smart, quirky, introverted, and pleasant to be around. They loved his dry sense of humor and admired his diligence to achieve goals despite challenges. He managed to lose over 100 pounds by eating a bland diet and working out excessively. He also landed a full-time job at Petco Park then Goodwill Industries.

Marquay very much enjoyed entertaining himself by reading books, playing video games, watching movies and TV, listening to all types of music, exercising, journaling, and collecting Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokémon cards. He also loved the Lord and got baptized at The Rock church in San Diego.

He is loved and deeply missed by all who knew him. His family has peace and comfort knowing he is with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ resting in eternal paradise as written in Revelations 21:4 "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away".
