We want to send our love to the Marshall family, here in Va. and in Texas. Dick Marshall leaves this world a better place because of the life he lived. He loved his God, his family, his neighbor, and his country... We are saddened by his departure, but thankful to have the hope of seeing him again in the glorious Kingdom yet to come.
