Not sure what to say?

Took me seventeen years to find your resting place. Miss you bud!!!

My name is Hunter Mills and I met Marshall when I was 16. Marshall and I were roomates in the fan and at Monroe Park towers when we were attending VCU. Marshall was a great support to me through the end of my teens and thourgh college. He helped me get through some very difficult times. We had a falling out, due to my stupidity, but later, Marshall was nice enough to accept my apology. I haven't spoken with Marshall in several years, but I have thought of him often, and I will always remember...

I had the priviledge of working with and getting to know Marshall in 1998 and 1999 when we were both employed by Dillard's at Virginia Center Commons in Glen Allen. Both of us were trying to adjust to life changes brought on by illness. We shared many talks during that time. In recent years we lost touch with each other, but the last time I saw Marshall he was getting his 7 ups, at Ukrop's and heading to a ball game with his friends.

To the loving family and dear friends of my cousin, Marshall, I send my deepest sympathy. He will be missed by us all.
I am so pleased that I got to know him better these last few winters when he came to Florida. He really loved Florida. I've been waiing for him to come back!
I will visit his favorite delis and smile sadly and remember how much he loved to go out and eat with family and friends.
His relationship with his mother was beautiful to observe, and Jeffrey has...

With my deep sympathy to his loving family and friends:
I enjoyed seeing him on his trips to Florida
and spending a little time with him – getting to know him better.
May memories of happier times help you through this difficult time.
I'm sorry I could not come to the funeral -- my thoughts are with you.

Dearest Anne, Jeffrey, Jessica, and all my other Richmond Gordon relatives, I am thinking of you at this sad time. My one consolation is that I was able to see Marshall just a few months ago, and spend a wonderful evening with him here in New York. Love, Esther
