Milton Marsh and his sweet wife, Annie, who predeceased him, were long-time friends who we spent much time with, both here and when they lived in Florida. They were both very pleasant and fun to be around and as we have missed Annie we will always miss Milton and his good humor and pleasant ways. The Lord blessed them both with long and happy lives and now they are together again with Him. Praise His Holy Name. Joe and Janet Caswell

It's difficult for me to express the loss I feel, losing my Uncle Milton, as he always said we were more like a brother and sister. I'll really miss spending our Saturday mornings together and reminiscing about the family and the years we spent together when I was growing up. I'll always hold him very dear in my heart.

I didn't know Mr. Marsh personally but when he came into Valenti's he was always smiling and such a pleasant customer. My condolences to his family and friends. May God comfort you in your time of need.

For many years we have exchanged Christmas cards. Late Annie Marsh made pies at Dew Drop Inn for many years. I, lived in No. Ston. Ct. for about 30 years.Milton and Annie moved to Fla. and we still exchanged cards. This year I, did not receive one from Milton, and could not understand it until I, read the Westerly Sun. He will be missed by family and friends. I, know that I, will miss his cards. May he rest in peace at this time of the year with the birth of Jesus. He will spend Christmas with Jesus this year. God will keep him safe with Annie.
