Marquise J. Stewart

August 11, 1988 ~ January 30, 2021

Marquise J. Stewart was born August 11, 1988 and passed into the Lord’s arms January 30, 2021 at the age of 32. Marquise battled kidney disease from birth and faced many challenges and a life-times worth of surgeries and medical procedures including three kidney transplants. He faced these trials and struggles bravely and quietly never complaining. Marquise always wanted the best for the other person and would give you the shirt off his back. He brought laughter into a room and put a smile on your face. He proclaimed his belief in Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior on his body with tattoos of a large cross, Japanese words “I am a soldier”, and his first tattoo “What will you say to God when you die?” Some of Marquise’s last words a week before his death were, “I am tired … I want to be free.”

Marquise faced life courageously and with a big heart. Thank you to Dr.’s Scott and Shea Samara, Dr. Jose El-Amm and all those at Integris Medical Transplant Institute who cared tirelessly for Marquise for years.

He leaves behind his parents, Jim and Susan Stewart, brothers and their families, Matt Porter and Andrew Porter, grandparents, and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins, along with his family in Tulsa and many friends. Marquise also leaves behind the love of his life, Titus James Stewart, his son, who gave him reason to keep fighting. Marquise is now free and at peace with the Lord Jesus Christ.

A celebration of life service will be held, Friday, February 5th, 1:00 p.m. at Crossings Community Church, 14600 N. Portland Ave., Oklahoma City, OK 73134.
