Funeral & Memorial Services for Marcellus (age 6)
Donation protected
On June 27th, 2014 Marcellus was born in St. Paul, MN to Martell Dixion & Demteria Smith. Marcellus loved to play video games and play with his friends. He loved junk food especially when he wasn't supposed to have it. He loved to read and going to school every day. In school he was known for being respectful and a good friend to many. At home, he was the third oldest he loved being around his siblings and his family.
Marcellus was a great kid who was destined for great things but that came to an end on Sunday, March 21st. A tragic accident happened in which Marcellus was left in a home without proper supervision and a weapon was found. Marcellus and a few other children found a loaded gun not knowing that the gun was real or loaded pulled the trigger instantly ending Marcellus life.
This gofundme will be used to cover the funeral cost as well as emotional support for his siblings and those who were affected by this tragic accident.
The funds are needed as soon as possible to make proper arrangements.
All funds will be managed by Renee ( his grandmother) and given to his father (Martell).
This was a tragic accident that could have been prevented. May this serve as a reminder that guns need to be locked away and out of reach of children.
