Sending my condolences to the family I am so sorry for your loss. ❤️

Marc blessed our lives in so many ways. He was much loved and will be always and loving held in our hearts. Prayers and blessings for his family.

I’m sorry for your loss! Heartbreaking! Find joy in the memories and the legacy he leaves behind!

We are forever grateful for the love and compassion Dr. Marc showed our family over the years. He will always be remembered as “the best doctor in the ever” by our boys. Our most heartfelt prayers go out to his family during this difficult time.

Our prayers are with you. We send our condolences to the entire family. He will truly be missed.

He was a wonderful man and his sorrily missed

The Lasky family sends all our love and prayers to the McCain and Jelmby families. We are so very sorry for your loss and for our entire community’s loss. Marc’s love, humor, care, and absolute brilliance will be terribly missed.

Words will never be enough to express how sorry and sad I am for the McCain family. He and Jeanette absolutely were Mr. and Mrs. VBHS and he left a pretty spectacular legacy in this community and on many lives. Sending you all the love and strength during this horrific time.

Dr. Marc, more than just a doctor to us. For 13 years you have taken care of us. From the very beginning, on one of our first visits with Brayden; you started a conversation with us as we would come to realize was your way, about what we were up to as a family. At the time we were struggling, new parents with the bright idea of opening a pet crematory for our community but unable to get a loan to get started. You suggested we go see your friend at a local bank, he can probably help you. And that is exactly what we did. We got the loan and were able to open up a successful business that taught our family many life lessons that we would have missed otherwise. We will be forever grateful for our many conversations, the jokes we shared, and the care you gave to not only our family but the community as well. To your family, we thank you for sharing him with us and send all our love and sincerest condolences. Tim, Courtney, Brayden and Griffin Myers

Words cannot express my heartfelt sorrow in your loss. Love to all.

Dr. Mark McCain will be forever missed. It still doesn’t seem real. Our family loved him dearly and our children who were his patients since birth (17 and 14 now) will always have a spot in our hearts for him. He loved his family and a week before his passing we were in the office with him for a sinus infection with one of the kids and this was the last conversation we had with him…. He was talking about how he couldn’t throw the ball as far as his senior in high school and how he had to work on it and didn’t feel manly as his daughter could throw the ball farther than him. He said he needed to work on this as a Dad. He was laughing. He was bragging on his girls in college. He was so proud and lit up the room when he was talking about this. I hope this brings some peace. Prayers coming to his entire family, friends and patients ❤️

Dr. Marc was so special to our family. We will never forget his smile, laughter, jokes, and fun loving nature! He had a way of making people feel so comfortable and so at ease. The community is heart broken over this tremendous loss. Going to the doctors will never be the same! Thoughts and prayers to his wife and children, whom he spoke highly about all the time.

Thinking of Jeanette and the girls and the whole extended family. We loved Marc not only as a doctor but as our friend. Forever in our hearts. Roger and Lora Grabach

Dr. Marc will always have a special place in our family’s heart. He treated all three of our children, never questioned us as parents, and most importantly loved our kids, and they loved him. His absence will be felt for many, many years to come. Our prayers are with his family as they navigate this difficult time in their lives.

We will always cherish Dr Marc singing “Benny and the jets” as he greeted us. The loss in the community is just too great to put into words. Thank you for guiding us through parenthood. My deepest condolences to the family and close friends of this amazing human.

I only knew Dr Marc through visits to his office with my grandchildren when I came to visit from North Carolina. I’m so thankful for his love for children and his jovial personality when he treated the kids! I am so affected from his passing and has tremendously made me think to always be kind and loving to everyone you meet because we just never know when we will be called home. I love him for just the brief times we met but I always felt he was loving and kind. I’m so deeply sorry for your loss of such a beautiful person. My prayers are with you all. Thank you for sharing him with the world! Praying for comfort and love!

I remember when Dr Onufer retired and took his patients.Thats how we were fortunate to meet . Dr Marc was Logans pediatrician from then on until he turned 18. What a wonderful person. Always thought he was the bestest Dr ever. Heartfelt thoughts and prayers to all he touched. Definitely will be a missed soul.
Rest in peace Dr. Marc.

My heart is just broken for my childhood friends who were like family. So much love to Matt and Michael, and especially Uncle Doug. Prayers and condolences.

My husband Cody and I offer our deepest condolences to the entire McCain Family. Marc was a great physician, a great neighbor and a devoted family man. Deepest sympathies to his staff and colleagues. We will remember Marc’s smile and his good natured teasing while caring for the grandchildren. May Marc rest in peace and may the Lord bless his family.

Dr. Marc took our kids at ages 12 and 13 when their previous pediatrician stopped taking our insurance. Our daughter had been off and on sick for years but her diagnosis could not be determined. We took her all over the state: Mayo Clinic, Univ of Miami, and Fl Childrens hospital. Our first visit with Dr Marc: he said I know what she has but I’m not going to tell you yet, I’ll do a blood test first. Well he was right and she has celiac disease. He was a renowned physician and a truly gifted diagnostician. It was a God given gift. He was a huge blessing to our family and we felt like we were home every time we were in his office. Continued prayers for Jeanette and the girls. Thank you for sharing your life partner with all of us and I hope you have peace in knowing how many countless lives he helped and touched. We will never forget what he did for our family. We love you Dr Marc!!

My deepest condolences and loving prayers to your family

The Harkness Family is greatly diminished by Marc’s passing. Godspeed to each family member. Please accept our sincere condolences.

Thank you for your heart and service to the children and community. You are and will be missed and thought highly of. Godspeed ❤️

Simply one of the best humans I’ve ever been blessed to know. Marc, your kindness, compassion and laughter will forever be missed. Your heart always burst with pride while talking about all of your girls. Sending so many prayers and much love to your beautiful family.

We are truly heartbroken. Dr Marc you were the absolute best. You made appointments fun and more of a play date for my children than a medical appointment. The kids loved visits to your office. They loved the gorilla hand appearing around the door. The lights going out. The Halloween costumes. The chicken and cow noises coming from their ears as you looked in them. They loved how you counted the number of chicken nuggets they had in their tummy’s when you examined them. They looked forward to bringing in their new favorite toys to show you. They loved your crazy socks. They loved your smile. As a mother, I loved your no-drama, low key approach. You always knew the right thing to say or do to put my mind at ease. You always had time for us and you made us feel special, like you had all the time in the world for us. You liked hearing about what the kids were doing and how school was going, and I appreciated that. I enjoyed our chats about Europe and hearing about your travels in the UK. You always spoke so fondly of your family. Visiting your office was a pleasure. It’s hard to believe you are gone, but we shall remember you and the visits to your office fondly. The McCain family are in our thoughts, as well as the team at Treasure Coast Pediatrics. We were lucky to have known you and for you to have been our doctor. RIP Dr Marc. You will be missed.

Becky & Wayne Borchart. My thoughts and prayers are with you all!

Dr. Marc was our family pediatrician. Our three (now adult) children were under his care & when they turned 18, we were sad that they had to move onto a doctor for ‘grown ups’. He was a wonderful doctor and always entered the room with a smile and something funny to say. I remember when my son told him he wanted to get a tattoo and Dr. Marc said, “No!! Don’t you know that in the book of Leviticus it says not to tattoo your body?!” We laughed about that for years. Our kids loved going to see Dr. Marc, they knew they were in the best hands and would always leave the appointment happy. When one of our children was in the ER, Marc was there and was a HUGE support during a REALLY difficult time. His love for his patients was so evident and we truly thank God for him. Our family will always love him and be so grateful that he was part of our lives. We send MANY prayers, love and hugs to his wife and daughters (and his family). May the Lord Jesus wrap each one of them in His mighty arms and give them peace. Love, The Camacho Family

My family lived across the street from the McCains ( on 28th Avenue) I used to babysit the McCain brothers. The main thing that stands out to me is how Marc would come over to our house , walk right in & watch TV with us or ask my mom if there was anything to eat.Burma would say , “Well let’s go to the kitchen & see what we have.”Marc was like another sibling to us. We all loved him & his outgoing personality.I am deeply sorry to hear of his passing.Doug,Matt & Mike , know that we love you & have you in our thoughts & prayers.

Prayers and heartfelt condolences go out to the entire McCain family and this entire community. I did not have the pleasure of using Dr. McCain as my pediatrician, but I know many people who did and who loved him dearly. I can tell what a phenomenal man he was, just by watching and listening to people who spoke about him, before this horrific week. And now, it is even more obvious as I watch people’s grief over losing such a pivotal member of our community. We just never know what we don’t know, and I will be holding his entire family in my heartfelt prayers.

Just to give all our condolences to Doctor Marc’family, couple year ago me and my husband meet him with our grandkids Noah 2 and Olivia almost 1,he give us the full confidence to take care of them,we are very sorry and sad for this and wish to find someone with the same passion of Doctor Marc God bless his soul.

We will miss you and remember you always, Dr. Marc. We pray for the beautiful progression of your soul and for your dearest wife and daughters. Love always, Matt, Megan, Melissa, Freddy, and Kelsey

My family and I are deeply saddened by Dr Marc passing. Eli and Wyatt loved Dr Marc. He always made them comfortable and not scared. Praying for this family. Much Love Zander, Lisa, Eli, & Wyatt Neach

I am deeply sorry to hear of Dr. Marc’s passing. We will keep The McCain family in our prayer.

Dr. Marc was a wonderful person and doctor, he was our sons pediatrician and most recently our grandson’s. We always looked forward to our appointments, he made even the worst situation so much better. Dr. Marc was very loved and will be missed. His family are in our thoughts and prayers, God Bless you all. The Morris Family ( Dane, Michelle, Dane Jr., Megan, Ryan and Bronson)

Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. Marc will be missed by so many as he touched so many lives. May your many memories bring you peace and comfort.

We are deeply saddened to hear about Dr. Marc’s passing. Our children were so blessed to be under his care for the last 13 years. The care he provided my them, and the reassurance he provided to Brian and I as parents is immeasurable. They looked forward to visiting him, even if they had 103 fever… Marc was such a big kid himself! Always making us laugh, no matter what the situation was, he always had a way to make our day brighter– and he had a God given gift of knowledge and expertise in his field. This community has truly suffered a tremendous loss. Our prayers go out to the McCain family as they navigate through this, may the Holy Spirit grant them a supernatural peace and comfort in the days ahead. May they know how loved he was by the community and the impact he had on so many. No pediatrician will ever fill his shoes…

To Jeanette and daughters and to the Jelmby family, with heavy heart we are sending to all of you our condolences for the loss of Marc. Our love and prayers are with you at this sad and difficult times. With love Georgina and Robert.

He was a remarkable pediatrician and he brought so much light and love to my boys, ages 7,4, and 2, and I will forever be grateful to him. He had his own nicknames for the 3 of them-Willy, Chuck, and Gus. He sure eased my momma worries every time I stepped foot in that office worried about my oldest sons growth. Dr. Marc would joke with him “you must be the tallest in your class!” We will miss him so much and remember all the wonderful memories we had the honor of sharing with him. My oldest son says that dr Marc is in heaven healing all of the children up there Giving them lots of lollipops ❤️

Dr Marc was my daughter’s pediatrician. He helped out our family and took care of my sick daughter on multiple occasions. I can’t express how thankful I am for his kindness and compassion. Our family will forever miss him.

Dr. Marc was an amazing man and doctor! Our 4 boys loved him! His loss will affect so many. We pray for his family, his friends and all his patients that he loved so much! We will always remember his smiling face and his wonderful laugh! Rest in peace, Marc

Dr. Marc was an amazing man. Not only was he my children’s doctor he was a friend. He never made me feel like I was overreacting or crazy as a first time mom. He was always patient and understanding. He answered my many questions and phone calls. He was there at my most vulnerable time being a mom. He healed every illness, fixed every bump or bruise and ran all the tests to found out what was wrong when we couldn’t get answers. I used to joke he was going to buy a boat and name it after our family we were at his office so much. As the years have gone by my girls have had fun joking with their beloved doctor. So much so that our daughter Hailey told us he is the reason she is going into the medical field in pediatrics. We all will miss him and continue to pray for his family.

Marc was my student in 7th grade. One of my all time favorite kids! He is so missed and prayers out to his family

Dr Marc will always be the Greatest Pediatrician Indian River County has ever had!!! He cared for my granddaughters like they were his very own. He took action immediately when their previous doctor kept putting treatment off. He always showed us love and never made us feel like we came in for no reason. My heart will be forever broken knowing he’s no longer here with his family, friends and patients. May he rest in peace and may we all continue to pray for his beautiful family.

You are so deeply missed by so many. We will forever remember your smile and laugh. You haven’t helped us countless times over the past 8 years with our boys and we will cherish all of the happy memories we have of you. You pulled our kids out of their shells in a way other people couldn’t and you did it so effortlessly. Our boys always left your office with a big smile and a funny story. We will never forget all of the cherished memories with you. Thank you for being the best Doctor. Our deepest condolences to your family. Love Amanda, Luke, Ashton, Logan and Reece

Dr. McCain was the type of person who left a lasting impression on you no matter how short of time was spent with him. I volunteered in the hospital nursery while I was in high school and whenever he came in to do rounds on the babies, he was so kind to me. Always offering to teach me or let me observe. He also worked with my mom who was a labor and delivery nurse. She loved to tell me stories about how amazing he was as both a doctor and coworker. I can’t imagine the sadness felt by his family and the community. Sending my deepest condolences.

I am so sorry to hear of Dr. Marc’s death. My prayers and condolences are with his family during this difficult time. God Bless.

We are truly heartbroken by the news of our friend/colleague and pediatrician Marc McCain! When I think of him I think of a truly one of a kind person and an irreplaceable pediatrician. Most children dread going to the doctor, not mine, and not most of Dr McCains patients, bc he was truly hysterical and lit up a room. We had the honor of seeing him one last time a month before his passing for my little ones well child. I was so happy to capture a video of him teasing her with a fake bug on her leg, which I have now learned he did often. We are praying for Jeanette and his children and family members . We cannot imagine the level of grief you are dealing with and send you prayers of peace and healing during this time.

Our family is deeply saddened by the passing of Dr.Marc McCain. Dr. Marc had been our daughter,Viví’s, pediatrician for the past eleven years. She looked forward to every visit with this wonderful physician. Dr. Marc truly cared for his little patients and treated each one with utmost respect. He had a genuine interest in the children’s lives. Dr, Marc created a unique bond with each patient. He knew who their “besties” were, their favorite sports and hobbies and what they wanted to be when they “grew up.” There will never be another Dr.Marc McCain. He lives on in our memories and in our hearts. May God hold Dr.McCain’s family in the palm of His hand.

He’s now in the care of our Heavenly Father.

While growing up, Marc and his family lived directly across the street from my parents on 28th Avenue in Vero Beach. As I am 20 years Marc’s senior, I knew Marc from his birth to his early or mid-teen years, when my parents retired and moved away. My interactions with him were as a neighbor when I lived at home, then a bit more sporadic after going to college and then moving away. I always found Marc to be a kind and engaging person, even as a child. My wife, Cheryl, and I have been thinking back on the times we had with Marc in those early years. She reminded me of a vacation we took, wherein we went down to Vero to stay and visit with my parents. Marc came over to visit with us. Our then four year old daughter (now 39) developed an instant crush on the then 14 year old Marc McCain. She blushed. Marc realized that and began to talk directly to Christie. Much to her delight, she ran and gathered all of her dolls and stuffed animals (we did not travel lightly back then), and they went and sat on the floor in my parents living room. There Christie regaled Marc with the various names of her dolls and stuffed animals, along with other information young girls share about their dolls and stuffed animals. They talked, laughed, teased each other, and played with those dolls and stuffed animals for a period of time. Obviously, I had an early front row seat to the very core of Marc’s soul, seeing that he was a very kind and loving person; traits he had a firm grasp on from an early age. Needless to say, Marc has, and always will have a place in our hearts. Cheryl and I join Vero Beach in mourning his loss, and send out heartfelt condolences to his wife, three daughters, his father Doug, his brothers Matt and Mike, and their respective families. Rest in peace Mark.

“Dr Marc” was a household name on our family for almost 17 years. My kids were patients back when he was with Dr Dan! He saved my sons life as a preemie and gave him his nickname. He diagnosed our daughter with a rare virus, and we talked politics, kids, education, and football at every visit. His kid was, enthusiasm for his profession and zest for life will never be matched. Going to be greatly missed!! Our whole family is saddened by this loss so cannot imagine the McCain family-he connected MANY lives through his care, and this community suffered a loss.

Our hearfelt thoughts and prayers are with all the families at this time. A great loss to our community. Mike and Marc played Little League with our sons, Michael and Brian. I coached against their dad. May he rest in peace and may the Lord comfort these families.

Very saddened to hear. Memories of a wonderful man and doctor.

Condolences to Jeanette and the girls. Marc was a amazing doctor to my 3 boys, 20 yrs in their lives. Such heartbreaking news for our community.. God Bless all of his family at this time. Prayers for comfort to everyone who loved him with all their heart! Best DOCTOR ever.. Trish, Kyle(Lasky) Gavin and Zachary Coffey

Our deepest condolences and prayers to Jeanette,3 beautiful girls and extended family. Marc was the best pediatrician! Always playing jokes and being so genuine to my boys. Of course , we loved that college rivalry too!! We will miss seeing you in the neighborhood Marc-rest in peace

Words can’t express how sorry we are to hear of Dr. Marc’s passing. We were blessed to have him as our children’s pediatrician from the moment they were born. We will miss his guidance, humor, smile, laughter and compassion.
Continued prayers for his family, friends, staff, colleagues, patients and their families. I know he worked tirelessly serving the community! Jeanette and girls, thank you for sharing him with us
May God wrap his arms around you all.
Love , The Monroe family ( Ben, Summer, Autumn and Brantley )

I knew Marc when he was a young boy living across the street from my family. He was always a joy to be around flashing a smile or making others smile. I loved that he felt at home at our house and would just walk in and join us eating, watching television or just hanging out. When Ralph and I got married, Marc was our ring bearer. When we would come home to visit Marc would come over and play with our daughter, Erika. He had a way with children which turned out to be a huge benefit for Indian River County. For Doug, Matt and Mike, please know that the Rutherford’s loved Marc like he was family. He will always have a place in our collective hearts.

We were so sad to hear the news of Dr. Marc’s passing. He was our son’s pediatrician since he was a baby until he turned 18. He was a fantastic doctor! We will always remember the nicknames he had for our son and how he was always positive. We were blessed to have such a great experience as first time parents with a great man. Sending our deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Offering our prayers to the family in this difficult time. He will be missed by so many.

Dr Marc was my grandchildren doctor and my nieces doctor. He was kind and funny and loved all his children and they loved him back. I want to extend my heartfelt love to his family. And to the community. We have all suffered a huge loss. The BEST pediatrician I’ve ever known. With the deepest love and respect.

Our deepest condolences to the McCain family. Marc blessed everyone he knew and will be missed by so many.

Our family was heart-broken to hear the news of Dr. Marc’s passing. Dr. Marc has been taking care of our 3 kids for the past 10 years. When our boys were last there in July, our oldest was sad to hear that he would only have one more visit with Dr. Marc because he would be turning 18. Little did we know, that our daughter’s appointment 3 weeks ago would be our last time seeing our fun-loving pediatrician, Dr. Marc. With 3 kids, we were there often through out the years. We could always count on Dr. Marc’s humor, jokes, and good-spirited teasing. He was a special pediatrician and one that our family will truly miss. Sending our sincere condolences and prayers to Dr. Marc’s wife, Jeanette and 3 daughters who he proudly spoke about at every visit. Thinking of his whole family, friends, and office staff as we learn to live without the one-of-a-kind Dr. Marc. It’s such a terrible loss for our community and for all the many lives he has touched. We hope he realized how loved he was not only by us, but by all of his patients and families. He will deeply be missed. Love, Toni, Chuck, Vincent, Nicholas, and Gabriella Morales

I was a classmate of Marc and Jeanette’s at VBHS. I remember Marc’s jovial and charismatic personality. Whether he was telling a joke or performing a party trick, he could always make the class laugh. Sending prayers to Jeanette, their daughters, and the McCain and Jelmby families.

To the family, our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

So sorry for the family for the loss of Marc he will be greatly miss what a great personality and loved by his patients and friends .May god give each of you peace and understanding .My deepest sympathy.

Marc, you will forever be in our heart. Our thoughts and prayers for your family.

Marc you will be greatly missed by the entire community. I will miss your caring way in taking care of my children and grandchildren. May your family find comfort in knowing you are with your Heavenly Father. I for one will never forget you and your infectious laugh and charming smile. My heart is broken and I will never forget you.

In almost 5 months, it will be a whole year since you gained your heavenly wings. To this day and moving forward you will be extremely missed for the rest of our lives, your childrens lives, your entire familiy’s lives, our childrens lives, our grandchildrens lives. You have had such a special impact on everyone you came across. I was straightening up some papers and a small green paper floated down, i knew exactly what it was, it was our reminder of our appt for my grandson to get his one year old shot. You passed a week before that was to take place. I stood there with tears in my eyes holding that paper remembering that that was the last time I would see your signature. I just wanna make sure you know you are still missed, still loved and deeply respected

I don’t know what made me look you up today, except for the fact that you are still very well missed. I couldn’t believe that tomorrow you gained your heavenly wings. 1 whole year ago, it just doesn’t seem possible. We keep you and your entire family in our prayers, I hope your girls have been able to navigate through the time that has gone by. I also hope your wife is able to continue to be strong for the girls s well as for herself. It’s still incredibly sad that you had to go at such a young age. so many of our littles will never get teased only the way you could tease them and put my daughters mind to rest when she brought him to you. He just turned 3 on the 7th. Maybe that’s why I was thinking of you today because he was supposed to get his 1 year shot from you, and we were one week shy of that happening. I know you are looking down on your loved ones like a little “elf on the shelf” but on their shoulder, guiding them, watching out for them and loving them every single day. Still at a lose of words with you not here, so i’ll just say, so long for now ;(
