Marcellus Paul Sanders came into this world, a tiny bundle of joy, with the most angelic face and full of Love. To his parents, Paul and Tamara, knew he was a blessing from the start and that they had created someone special. Little did they know, this wonderful human would be such an amazing light to so many. As Marcellus grew into the man his family and friends loved so dearly, he lived life to the fullest, never missing an opportunity for personal growth. He traveled the world on a whim, armed with nothing more than a beautiful smile, a twinkle in his eye, and a charisma that effortlessly drew in so many. Marcellus never knew a stranger. He embraced life on his own terms, whether living freely in Puerto Vallarta, dancing in clubs throughout Berlin, back packing in Poland or teaching English in Vietnam. He had dreams and goals that surpassed the universe, yet always made time to connect with family, support friends, and express his love to those dear to him.
Affectionately known as Celly to family and Mars by dear friends, he would want us all to continue to celebrate him and the amazing life he lived in such a short time on this Earth.
Marcellus is preceded in death by his Father, Paul Sanders; Grandfather, Jack Sanders; Grandmother, Diane Taylor; and Grandmother, Beatrice Jimerson.
He is survived by a huge loving family to include; his Mother, Tamara Jimerson; brothers, Nathanael Sanders and Koah Seaton; Grandfather, Turner Jimerson; Aunts, Tora and Tanisha Jimerson, Tessa Alexander, Meghan Nelson, and Leatha Sanders; Uncles Paul Ruano, Turner Jimerson Jr., Darius Hamilton, Sean Sanders, and Marcus Chinelo; and Cousins, Vincent and Micheal Ruano, Rayven and Elijah Alexander, Ché Chinelo, NaKai Jimerson, and Kassandra Sanders. He is also loved by many Great-Aunts and Uncles, Cousins, and so many amazing friends. This is never goodbye, only a "see you later, bruh" as Marcellus would say.
Rest peacefully, Beloved.
