Marcus Charles Stanley Johnston

Dear Marcus. Thank you for the days at Deichman with the kids. Knowing that we might meet you and Iben there made me want to go each day. Our friendship was all too brief, but felt real and close. Hvil i fred.

Ruth, Vilde, Jo og Emil

Du tenkte på alle og ville dem vel.
Nå skal du hvile, for nå er det kveld.

Marcus, only knew you for a short time as part of my last year in oslo and I am really grateful for that year of friendship. Sending so much love to Anne and your beautiful girls.

Funny, stoic, smart, generous, and all in all an absolute legend.

You single handedly changed the trajectory of my life, and for that Ill always be grateful. Even though you did label me Slowmid.

You made the world a better place. Our family's love to you and yours. Were always here if you ever need anything.

Feeling lucky to have spent some time catching up on the many years past and getting to know you and your family. Such a shock. Rest in Peace my friend.

Anne, sending so much love to you and your family, my sincerest condolences. I'm holding you all in my heart. Marcus was an incredible mentor and friend. He brought so much light to all our lives. He helped shape so many of us to be our most vibrant selves. He called me "sis bro" and I called him "bro sis" - he was truly like family and always showed up like so. He made everyone feel so genuinely seen and heard. We spent many late nights in the Away office shipping out campaigns and our last trip to Mexico City for a shoot before the pandemic are some of the memories I will always cherish most in my life.

Dear Marcus. We're grateful we got to know you. Thanks for the long detours home from kindergarten, filled with love and fun and futile bribery to get the kids home for dinner. And for the best children's parties for grown-ups. Our friendship was brief, but you made us feel close nonetheless. We promise to do ours to carry on to Iben and Tobias the warmth and humour you radiated. I wish there was more to do. We'll miss you. Rest in peace. Sigurd, Stine, Iver and Willi.

Marcus, you were always the kindest soul and the coolest cat. Ill never forget those special times in NYC (and Sydney). Until next time bro. X

Anne, sending you and the kids all my love. Marcus was an incredible creative mind, mentor and friend. I and many others were so lucky to work and learn from him at Away. I always admired how he made time for all of us. He was truly such a good, genuine, caring human. There are many fond memories Ill treasure forever.

Absolutely devastated. Keeping you in my thoughts and heart x

A dear friend and absolute fucking legend. Rest in peace, Marcus. We love you so much! Your spirit will will shine on forever.

You were the best of us. Youll be forever missed.

Sending so much love to you Anne, Eben, Tobias and all. My heart is with you all. May that beautiful man be celebrated for his warm big loving heart, his wonderful sense of humor and the great vibes he bought to all of us. Love him much!!!

We miss you mate. Love always. Ben, Felicity, Harry and Ruby x

So clever, so caring. You will be missed. x
