marc...
marcus...
he grew up right here, on land he loved, back when he couldn’t be who he was on it
so he built a life everywhere else... whole. true. himself.
when he passed, his family brought him home
they scattered his ashes beneath a dogwood tree on this farm
the same farm that became ours in 2023 and hosts affirmingsumner now ..
and this week, we dedicated it to him
MARK “MARCUS” ANTHONY GANN
this land was always his too.
