“Marc is genius in his ability to take the most<br />

rudimentary idea scribbled on paper and<br />

turn it into a masterpiece that is museum<br />

quality. He is patient, thoughtful, caring and<br />

has a sense of humor that is contagious! If<br />

anyone makes that cultural center run on a<br />

daily basis, it’s Marc!” said Joe Gillie.<br />

Green Market Guru Lori Nolan agrees.<br />

“Marc is an action man and the go-to guy at<br />

OSS to get things done. He is an incredible<br />

asset not only to Old School Square but Delray<br />

Beach as well. His kind and magnetic<br />

personality is always there to assist and he<br />

does so with a genuine smile on his face. To<br />

know Marc is to love Marc.”<br />

Nolan is right. The afterglow of hanging<br />

with Stevens is something akin to<br />

basking in a happy space. When he talks<br />

about those he loves there’s a feeling that<br />

his heart is beating outside his chest. The<br />

loves of his life are his rescue dog Mocha<br />

Bean (who has eaten up his possessions<br />

and his phone), his loving father James W.<br />

and mom Winnie.<br />

One gets the distinct feeling that Stevens’<br />

love is pure and all- encompassing, which<br />

is what makes him such a Delray Treasure.<br />

But don’t tell him that. He might get embarrassed.<br />
