It is with heavy hearts and deep sadness that we announce the passing of Marcus Wade Gandy, who bravely fought his battle with cancer until June 29, 2025. Throughout his illness, Marcus inspired everyone around him with his remarkable strength, courage, and unwavering positivity.
Marcus was born July 14, 1977 and raised in Houston, Texas, he graduated from Klein Forest High School and then went on to earn his Bachelor's Degree from the University of Houston where he was a member of the business fraternity Delta Sigma Pi there he made lifelong friendships. On November 13, 2010, Marcus married the love of his life, Geneva, and together they created a family and planted their roots in Spring, TX.
Marcus worked at FIS as a Senior Trust Account Manager for the past 10 years. In that time he mentored junior associates and created a tight knit group of not only coworkers but friends. Marcus spent all his extra time sharing his love of music with Brooks and watching his band preform, watching Bennett play basketball and keeping score at his games and cheering on Blaire from the sidelines as she played soccer. He was a devoted family man.
Marcus was preceded in death by his father, Jimmie D. Gandy. He is survived by his beloved wife, Geneva; their children, Brooks, Bennett, and Blaire; and his devoted mother, Donna Gandy. They, along with his extended family and numerous friends, will forever cherish the warmth, laughter, and joy he brought into their lives.
A memorial service to celebrate Marcus's extraordinary life will be held at 11:00 am July 12th at Northside Christian Church, 20250 Kuykendahl Road, Spring, Texas 77379. Family and friends are invited to gather in remembrance, share memories, and support each other through this difficult time.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made in Marcus's memory to the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation, a cause close to his heart.
Though Marcus is no longer physically with us, his enduring spirit, boundless love, and inspiring strength will forever remain in our hearts.

It was my first day as a 7th grader at Klein Intermediate and I think he talked to me bc I was nervous. We ate lunch together and from that first day we were thick as thieves, stayed at each others houses, watching movies, playing Nintendo, etc. You never once let me be bullied by anyone. You are will forever be in my heart and memories. Gone too soon, rest well, and I´ll think of You each time I watch " The Goonies." I´m numb, saddened but know you aren´t in pain. RIP old friend. #gonetoosoon #cancersucks #fightertilltheend

Marcus and I met at JPM first. Then we worked together at Wells Fargo, from December 2008 to December 2013. During that time we learned a lot about each other and I met his future wife, Geneva while working together. In fact, I think she is the one that put in a good word, for him, to me in order to hire him. We were a small team in the Houston office, the International Team, and we worked early morning hours, and worked well together. We would do outtings, including visiting the main office in Columbia, MD and he always had a happy demeanor and talked about his wife and family glowingly. I don't think I ever remember him complaining about anything, which was something I really admired about him. After we moved on from Wells Fargo, we were at different companies but would pass each other in downtown Houston and play catch up for a few minutes or so. He will definitely be missed and I am glad he and I got to work together for a half decade. Geneva and family, my condolences to you all. Rest easy Marcus, God, family, and friends got them covered. As the London group would say - Cheers, William "Will" Wallace
