Wow Mr. Massengill. I thought I would go before you. Save me a seat. I'm so glad the last time I saw you I told you how much you meant to me when I was growing up. All of us kids were welcome in your home and we are better for it.

Marshall was a great person, a great friend, a great electrician, and most of all; just a fabulous person to know and to be around. He had a quality that only God gives to his special people; and Marshall is definitely with God and his loved ones. I know he is missed by family, friends, fellow workers, and all who knew him. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Thanks for touching so many lives. I'll always remember your smile.
God Bless, Jerry Nichols
