John Markas Jr. Obituary
With profound sadness, we say goodbye to John Markas Jr. of Kings Mountain, North Carolina, born in Morganton, North Carolina, whose vibrant spirit touched the lives of many. John left this world on September 1, 2024 at the age of 84, leaving a void in the lives of so many people. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid John farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For John is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
He was predeceased by: his parents, Ruth Ann Harmon Markas and John Mitchell Markas. He is survived by: his sisters, Mary and Patricia Anne Markas; his wife Brenda Ann Tolson-Markas; and his sons, John Markas III (Linda) of Wilmington, NC and Lantz Tolson (Jenna) of McPherson, KS.
