Honoring the Life and Legacy of
Marc A. Savarese
Biography
Marc Anthony Savarese (May 31, 1996 – October 24, 2022) was a big presence in this world in every way – physically, socially, and emotionally. His smile would light up any room he entered. Marc touched the hearts of many and will be missed by his parents, Karen and David; his siblings, Leemari, Richie, and Chris; his grandparents, aunts, uncles, friends, and many members of his biological family.
Marc loved to have a good time and to experience new adventures. His recent move to NJ was a new chapter that he was very proud of. Marc’s greatest loves were music and animals. He was an amazing caregiver through the years to his dogs, Domino and Bonnie, and the many small pets that were part of our household. He is proudest of his jobs in Animal Care – most recently at Camp Bow Wow in Midland Park, NJ. He was so proud of the strong connection that he made with the animals that he cared for.
Marc loved children and was a great role model for many of his friends’ children. He was a great son, sibling, and friend. He loved fiercely with everything he had and was always present for those in his world. Marc was tremendously fun. A day with Marc was unpredictable and always brought a smile to your face.
Marc and his family had a lot of great times and have a lot of wonderful memories. He did a lot of living in 26 years. This last year was one of Marc’s happiest. He was thrilled to move to NJ to be with his girlfriend. He was proud of his jobs in security and animal care and his ability to save and plan for his move and his new car. He was at peace with who he was and truly enjoying the man he was becoming.
He will be missed greatly. We ask that you hold on to your best memories of Marc and celebrate his amazing life. We hope that you will take the time to share a memory of Marc either here in the guest book or during the virtual reception of his celebration of life.

Yvonne,
This is one of my favorite pictures of Marc as an adult. He was always at peace when he was with animals.
Marc was a great man and loved being a brother to so many siblings. He will live on in our hearts, souls and memories. His light was too bright to be gone, we will carry it on for him
Karen and Dave
Marc is a bright light and happy guy. He always had a beautiful smile every time we visited (and usually hugging Domino). I don’t know why God takes such kind and beautiful people like Marc so young. I have only happy memories of such a great guy. You’ll certainly be missed Marc. Love, Uncle Joe & Aunt Nita
Hi Joe and Nita,
Thank you for sharing your positive memories of Marc. He shined bright in this world and that light will be missed every day. He enjoyed life to the fullest and will live on in our hearts and memories.
Karen and Dave
The English language lacks the word necessary to accurately convey the burning I feel in my heart for the loss I now have to endure. You were more then just a brother you were a friend a confidant we laughed at each other and together loved together and each other we bonded our hearts together in an effort to better take the punches the world kept throwing at us and now I have to do all that without you and I’m a weaker man today without you, you made a difference in my life I was looking forward to the next couple of years. it really looked like thing were getting better. I don’t even feel like I’m in my own body anymore. I take back everything I ever told the world we always lacked because now it feels like we were never afforded any slack. You deserved better, I’ll carry you in my heart always because that all I can do.
Richie,
Marc’s loss leaves a tremendous hole in all of our hearts. Try to take comfort in the strong bond you had and fun and comfort you gave each other during his too short life. He will live on in our memories and hearts.
Mom and Dad
My most deepest condolences Karen & David & to the rest of the family.
Marc you’re no longer here to share a bond of love & care. And somehow something tells me you’re watching over us. I miss you so very much and yet within my heart I feel you are always by my side. Ever since your passing my life have never been the same. It brings me comfort to know that someday we will meet again. I love & miss you little big brother from your little big sis Jasmin rest in peace ? ??
Hi Jasmin,
Thank you. He will be missed but never forgotten. He will forever live in our memories. He touched so many lives in his short life. We should all take peace in the shared love.

Karen and Dave
Karen and Dave, Joe and I are so truly sorry and heartbroken to hear of Marc’s passing. I will always remember his big smile, curly hair and chubby cheeks. He was such a happy child. From all the pool parties at your house, to trips to Roseland Ranch, to the family picnics and holidays together in Brooklyn, we have an abundance of happy memories of Marc. He will be greatly missed. We pray your happy memories of Marc and the love from those surrounding your will see you through this difficult time.
Kim,

Michelle,
Thank you. Marc was so proud of his work at Camp Bow Wow and spoke highly of his coworkers.
I am glad you had an opportunity to see Marc’s positive attitude and love for animals.
Karen and Dave
We were all so happy to have Marc join our team recently. From his first day, it was obvious how much he cared about the dogs, others, and his job. He greeted everyone with a smile and warmth. We may not have known him long but will definitely remember him. Sending our thoughts and condolences to all who knew Marc during this time.
Hi Shayna,
Thank you for the kind words. He was very proud of the work he did at Camp Bow. He would tell me every day which dogs already trusted him and which he was working on gaining their trust. He was very committed to the work there.
Karen and Dave
Mark was like a brother to me like no other even though we had our ups and downs had our disagreements in our fights we always end up having fun some type of way everyday was an adventure no I don’t really bring joy in life and that every situation no matter what happened I’m going to really miss you bro

Marc and I were just talking about you last week. You were on his list of people he hoped to see after he got settled in NJ. You were a great influence on his life. I will always remember how honored he was when you, Ruby, Martin and Angel came to his birthday parties.
Please tell your mom and brothers and sisters that my thoughts are with all of you at this difficult time.
He lives on in our hearts for ever!
Karen (Marc’s mom)
