Just found out today. We worked on Marshall's Computer at the Genius bar. He always had a joke to make us smile. He will truly be missed in our store.

Odd not to see him with a cup of Starbucks in one hand and papers & such in the other, then setting his cup of joe on the water fountain right outside his office door while he fumbled with his keys - this was his routine most days. He would pop in our office every now and then (we were next door neighbors here at work) and give us a good laugh especially if it was a political joke. Truly a raconteur!
May God grace his family with inner strength and much needed comfort during this time of loss.
God Bless,
Marie Hurst

Marshall and I worked extremely well together. He was always thinking and examining a better way to improve technologies of all types. One of his hurricane house designs is attached.

I will never forget his humor and friendship.

He had a very deep love for his family Katy Lucy, Isabel and Laura.

May our Lord's everlasting light shine on our friend Marshall.

Worked with him. Laughed with him.
No job was impossible. No moment was too dull.
Left a dent in my life, but a void in those he loved.
Missed you, Marshall.

We never met a man with a more creative imagination. Marshall, we miss you in this life, but we now look forward to the next and finding out what your imagination has done there prior to our arrival.
