Marcus A. “Marc” Fox, 49, passed away from colon cancer on Thursday, Aug. 20, 2020, at Divine Rehabilitation and Nursing Home in Fennimore.
He was born on April 26, 1971, in Racine, the son of Gail M. (Sorenson) and Michael R. Fox.

They were united in marriage on Aug. 15, 1998, and were inseparable for just shy of 22 years. With a passion for firearms and their safety, Marc enjoyed teaching his family to shoot in the hot deserts of Arizona. He loved collecting Harley Davidson apparel and trinkets, hunting, fishing, boating, camping, working on small engines, cheering at his nieces and nephews sporting events, listening to classic rock and just being in the company of those he loved.
Marc is survived by his father, Mike; brother, Chad; sister, Kristina Fox-Christensen; three nieces and 11 nephews; one great-niece and one great-nephew.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Gail; his wife, Tina; and his brothers, Michael Fox II and Mathew Fox.
