MARIETTA, Ga. -- Marc C. Van Horn, 43, passed away unexpectedly Friday, July 21, 2023. He was a loving son, father, husband, brother, uncle, cousin and friend who will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
Marc was born Nov. 21, 1979, in McKeesport, Pa., the beloved son of Charles and Barbara Stull Van Horn. His family later moved to Cortland, Ohio, in 1989, where he spent his formative years developing lasting friends and relationships.
He attended Lakeview High School, where he enjoyed playing football, basketball and track. He attended Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in finance and was a brother in the Delta Upsilon fraternity. Later, he obtained an MBA from University of Pittsburgh.
During his career, he worked in senior level finance positions for PNC Corp, GE Capital, and Citizens Bank. Throughout his career, he was known for his hard work, loyalty, dedication, and passion for helping his co-workers and serving his clients.
But more than anything, Marc was a devoted father and husband. He loved spending time with his children -- sharing stories, playing games, and watching their favorite TV show, "Murdaugh Mysteries." He was always there to offer guidance, support, and encouragement, no matter what challenges they faced.
In his free time, Marc enjoyed family vacations, golfing, running marathons, hiking, cornhole league, cross-fit strength training, listening to his favorite music, Metallica, and spending time with new and old friends.
He was always thoughtful of others and eager to share his knowledge and enthusiasm. He was a long-time member of St. Robert Bellarmine Church in Cortland and an active member of St. Ann Catholic Church in Marietta, Ga. He gave back to his community, volunteering for various causes and organizations.
Marc is survived by his parents; his loving wife, Erin Adair Van Horn; and children, Brady, 13, and Caroline, 10; sister, Lori Long and brother-in-law, Justin, of Westerville; father-in-law, Mark, and mother-in-law, Linda Adair, of Howland; sister-in-law, Megan Adair, and fiance, William Moenart, of Land O'Lakes, Fla.; loving nieces, Izzy and Brooke Long and Madelyn Moenart; and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins.
He was preceded in death by grandparents, Joseph and Evelyn Van Horn, and Herbert and Margaret Stull.
An avid animal lover, he leaves behind his faithful golden retriever, Ada.
His memory will be cherished by all who knew him.
Visitation will be held for family, relatives and friends from 10 a.m. to noon today, Friday, July 28, 2023, at St. Robert Bellarmine Catholic Church, 4659 Niles Cortland Road (state Route 46), Cortland, Ohio. The visitation will be immediately followed at noon by a funeral Mass at the church.
