From his brothers Bebo:

Most of you know. But alot of you dont. My Brother Marcus Andrew Pikel passed away on July 11th, 2008. The cause of his death was Chronical heart desease and an accidental overdose. Marcus was not only my brother but was my best friend. He was the only person that was always there to t alk to and could alwaya make me laugh. His smile could make anyone feel like a million dollars. Not only was he that he was a role model. Some of the things he did really didnt act like it. But he was to me. Marcus was a mentor to me. When i was going threw bad times he could always lead me to the right place or give me the perfect directions. I love my brother very much and will miss him more than anything. He will always be looking down on me and i am greatful for that. And the worst part about his death was i never got the chance to say goodbye or tell him i love him or tell him how much he means to me. I am very proud of my brother for what he accomplished in his life time. I know i am upset now but what makes it better is knowing he will always be with me no matter what and i will make him so proud of me. Marcus was only 20 years old but lifeless in his mind. I was very lucky that marcus was my brother. He was the most amazing guy you would ever meet. He would blow you away with his sense of humor and his outgoing personality. But i dont get to laugh with him anymore. I will talk to him all the time but no one is going to talk back and thats what hurts. Knowing he is gone until I meet him again in heaven. Marcus is loved and missed very much. And all i can say is that I LOVE YOU BRO!!!!

Rest In Peace:Marcus Andrew Pikel
