Marquice Wallace was born in San Diego on July 10, 1974, to Vincent L. Wallace and Denise Carter. His life was one of transformation and resilience. In 1998, he was incarcerated–a pivotal moment that would later become a powerful chapter of his personal growth. While in prison, Marquice embraced his faith, earned multiple certifications, and worked tirelessly to rebuild himself. His journey led him to a deep connection with God, which would define the man he became.
Marquice was determined to make the most of his second chance. He married Nickole Ellis on November 5th, 2016, and together they created a life filled with love, faith and hope for the future after his release in 2022.
On December 31, 2024, Marquice passed away.
Marquice is survived by his loving wife Nickole, his stepdaughter Seyanah, his grandchildren; Kyren and Aleia, and his siblings; Demond, Charles, Desale, Denise “Deshay”, Nickolas, Deon, and Christian. He will also be deeply missed by his best friend Kevin, whose unwavering friendship was a constant throughout his life.
Marquice’s legacy is one of faith, love, and the power of redemption. He will be remembered for his strength, kindness, and the example he set of overcoming adversity.
In lieu of flowers and cards, the family requests that condolences be sent to Preferred

“… I promised myself that I would live life and not take a day for granted… So I’m thanking God for positioning us to live and give Him the glory as we do… We’ve only just begun!!!” – Marquice Wallace July 30, 2022
