Obituary

A light has gone out on this November 25th, 2020 and the warmth of a heart of gold is now passed on to the hearts of many that have forever been changed by Marcus Alan Permenter.

 

As a baby boy he always put on a smile that would instantly cause those around him to instantly adore him. When he was almost two, his grandparents were helping he and his Mom pack for a move. Marcus asked Papa, his grandfather, “What are you doing?”, Papa answered that he was disconnecting the VCR to put it in a box. Marcus immediately became visibly upset and began to reach for the VCR and into the tape slot with his little hand. He pulled out a half eaten cheeseburger. That sweet boy was saving it for later. 

 

Although not always a perfect kid, growing up in the Texas and Washington areas he always tried to care for those close to him. His time at Job Corp was an amazing experience that helped him grow and figure out who he really was. It was at Job Corp where he met Mr. Lucas who became a mentor in more ways than he’ll ever truly know. Marcus loved and respected Mr. Lucas immensely and the lessons he learned would carry through as he grew to be an amazing man.

 

Marcus became an integral part of the Bear Lair family while in Dallas, always taking care of everyone just as his Momma always took care of him. He would look after everyone with his warm personality, quick wit and humor, and his “Namaste…right here.” Not wanting to be the center of attention, but always being the first to provide support when needed. He made his Sir proud and lived up to their shared promise, “Always be my boy.”

 

Marcus is survived in the hearts of many, through his Mother Amy Youngblood, Nana Genny Youngblood, Aunt Stacy Hall and Husband Ryan, Uncle Matt Youngblood, Aunt Peggy Enloe, Aunt Shirley Salmon and Husband Ron, Cousins Trevor Long and Chad Toney, Brad Sublette and Pat Sublette, his Sir Charlie Bolante, and in all his extended Bear Lair family Anthony, Rueben, MJ, Shawn, Jamin, and so many more it would be impractical to name everyone.

 

Words only limit the extent of your story and complex weaving of the lives you affect with your light. You are so much more. We will always remember the warmth of your hugs, the smile to let us know you care or have a devious plan up your sleeve, the bright eyes of hope and wonder, the hearty laugh of pure joy, the tears of empathy and care you shared to comfort those of us in need. Oh and those BBQ ribs! The amazing man that we are proud you’ve become, the loving son and boy, the uncle, the brother, the friend and the many other impactful roles you have achieved. You’ve left your mark!

 

Rest now gentle soul, thank you for being a part of our lives, we love you!!! Until we meet again. Sweet Dreams Sugar Bear, Momma loves you!

Please leave the family condolences and share memories on this website.

    I didn’t know Marcus for very long, but in the time I was friends with Marcus I enjoyed his company a great deal. He was such a wonderful person and fun to be around. I will miss him dearly.

"If I could give 6 stars I would. Aria made a difficult easier to deal with by basically taking care of everything in an efficient but very empathetic manner. I can speak highly enough of Dusty Martin, who helped us with all of the planning and logistics. He was incredibly understanding and helpful."

"Nothing prepares you for the grief you go through when losing a child. I called this funeral home at 2:00 am broken and could barely talk. The amount of compassion and empathy they showed me immediately let me know I found the right place to cremate my son. I cannot thank them enough for their professionalism, SINCERE concern, and commitment to making sure my son was honored in the most respectful way. I hope this Funeral home values her as much as my family and I do."

"I can’t say enough about how helpful and professional Dusty Martin, the funeral director at the Aria Cremation location on NW Highway has been. From my initial call, he was kind and informative. My friend died at home while on hospice and she was picked up in about an hour after receiving the call from the hospice nurse. The person who arrived to pick her up was also very professional/respectful and allowed us to take as much time with her as we wished. When I met with Dusty the next day about arrangements, he explained the process and options available without being pushy or trying to “sell” extras. Throughout the process, he kept me informed and, for example, was careful to be certain I understood the cost of the obituary I wanted and offered some options for reducing that cost if I wished. When I stopped by for another reason and started talking about some of the problems I was having with the pictures and media I hoped to use at a memorial lunch I was planning, he not only listened patiently but offered technology advice and let me use his personal media player. I have had experience arranging cremations for four others using two other local companies, and this experience with Dusty at Aria has been by far the best one I have had."

"My Daddy’s service and our family experience at Aria Northwest Highway was truly blessed. Funeral Director Dustin Martin is the kind of person that you would like to see on a more regular basis – but in his industry – you hope to not see him that often. That being said – THANK YOU DUSTIN for your unending kindness, compassion and friendship through the process. Meeting you and discussing Dallas History, Find A Grave and my Dad’s lifelong contributions to the great City of Dallas was simply wonderful! In memory of my dad James A. Dodd, Sr. – I want to personally thank you and let you know that you made everything better in that moment. Your calling to “Be There” is spot on. Aria has a one in a million guy in you! Bling Blinky of TEXAS Shout Out: God Bless You!!"
