Marcus Antwan Scriven

Our beloved, Marcus A. Scriven, entered into eternal rest on Tuesday, December 20, 2022, at his home in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Marcus was born on October 2, 1982 in Sumter, SC to the parents of Clarence Scriven and the late Inez “Dean” Kennedy Scriven. He received his formal education in the Atlanta Public Schools, Atlanta, GA.  He was employed with Capital Chevrolet until his untimely death.

Marcus was a big sports fan and loved his Atlanta Braves, Hawks, and a diehard Atlanta Falcons fan. He stuck with the team, win or lose. Marcus loved to cook and post his food on social media outlets. His ultimate goal was to own his own food truck.
