SCARBEARY, MARC WILSON
1952 - 2015
Marc Wilson Scarbeary of Littleton, Colorado died unexpectedly of a heart attack at age 62 on Sunday, March 1st, 2015 with his loving partner Heather Manning and his daughters by his side. He was born in Denver on July 29th, 1952. Marc’s home was in the Denver area his whole life; but he lived his life in many places; among his family, with friends, out with fishing buddies, his Prowler car club members and fellow adventurers.
A graduate of Cherry Creek High School in 1970, he was a successful entrepreneur and painting contractor. Marc defined his American Dream by the many lives he’d made better or impacted in a good way. Money wasn't his goal. It was about being able to help others to pursue their dreams.
Marc always had story to tell. There was pure joy in his eyes talking about his latest outing with the grandchildren or an adventure just finished and perhaps the next one in planning. He would be soon heading off or just returning from a fishing trip with friends, the Iditarod in Alaska, his British Columbia adventure on Stuart Island or a Prowler car rally. HE REALLY LIVED and LOVED!
Marc is survived by; Lynne Scarbeary, mother to his children; his two daughters, Claire Marlow of Casper; Brooke Clanton of Denver; and his three grandchildren Shy, Talula and Rig. Predeceased by his brother Stan, Marc is also survived by his brothers Donald, Richard, Robert and David.
A celebration of Marc’s life will be held Saturday, March 14th, 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at Hudson Gardens Inn, 6115 South Santa Fe Drive, Littleton.

Marc loved fly fishing and fishing in Alaska and Canada,,,along with putting his foot into the Road Warrior. Always smiling and joking with others...and a fantastic story teller. I was proud to call him a friend! - Alley Cat
Life is way too short for some. Time to put away all the petty arguments and differences between people, who really have one good thing in common: Love of cars, good times. I know Marc loved the people he was close to, and people in general. So, when you think of him, know he left with good thoughts in his heart for us all. All of us made a positive impact on him and in turn he did the same for all of us. - jd2ksilver
This is from Claire from a video interview of Marc;
This statement says so much about the man that he was.
(Marc), How would you define success?
"For me, probably one of the biggest things is how many lives I’ve impacted, made better, or impacted in a good way. Whether it would be my kids, family, or anybody outside of that, employes, friends, friends of friends, neighbors. Success to me is really seeing the things I’ve done and do, impact people in a positive, beneficial way. Money it is not, for me, it was not the goal, it was being able to help others to pursue their dreams.
Whatever you decide to do, own it, for good or bad. If you screw up, own it, don’t think you are or victim or blame somebody else. And don’t burn the bridges. That’s a huge thing, don’t burn bridges, because everything is about people. All of life, it’s about people, whether its strangers or family, it’s all about the people."
