Marco attended Indiana University in Bloomington and held a successful entrepreneurial career in the optical industry. He touched thousands of lives through his work and inspired countless employees and co-workers to further their education and improve themselves. Marco was an avid outdoorsman, enjoying boating, kite-surfing, diving, spearfishing and more. But Marco's greatest pleasure was spending time with his family. He adored his two sons and traveled the world with them. He was a loving husband, a loved and respected brother and son and a true friend to all who knew him. A private memorial service will be held for family members. If you wish to express your condolences, in lieu of flowers, please consider a memorial contribution to the Surfrider Foundation – Palm Beach County Chapter in the name of Marco Musa.
