Chef Marshall was my friend first and my boss second. He saw potential in me that even at times I didn't see in myself. He taught me so much in the short period of time that we worked together. Because of him, I've come so far in the industry. I still have the knife he surprised me with because I didn't have any chef's knives at the time and to this day it is my favourite knife, I use it all the time. Chef Marshall was one of a kind and I will never forget him. I'll do everything I can to take what he taught me and use it every day in hopes to make him proud someday. Marshall made a major impact on me, and I honestly hope someday I'll make him proud.
Rest in paradise

When a best friend dies
A part of you dies too
But just like the part that goes with them
A part of them stays with you
You carry them with you
And honour them every day
It's a part of you, you live with
And it never goes away
Certain bonds can can't be broken
Real friendships never end
Time may pass
But they are with you until the end
We are on the same journey
We all end up in the same place
So I choose to say see you in the next room brother
This isn't goodbye
It's see you later my wonderful friend.
I love you and miss you every day buddy
Love Always

Sending so much love to Marsh´s family and friends. He was a wonderful soul; the kind of person who would invite you to a casual picnic, only it was made up entirely of the best wine and cheese money could buy (one of my best memories with him).
Sharing a photo of happier times with Marsh a few years ago. I can´t quite believe he´s gone.

Thinking of you and others who loved him. May he rest in peace, may you also and other people who loved him also move forward in peace. We can't help but reflect on what we could have done in moments like this. The reality is not much but exactly what you have done over the years: you loved him, you cared for him, you supported him the best you could but its a two way street. Nos sincères condoléances et notre plus profonde affection pour deux personnes extraordinaires dans ces moments douloureux,

Chip & Michelle - our most sincere condolences for your loss. While we did not know Marsh, he sounds like he was a tremendous character of whom you were very proud. As parents of a child who suffers from depression, please accept our thoughts of support and encouragement as you grapple with this tragedy. All the best to you and yours.

It´s difficult to find any words of comfort ... Marsh was larger than this life could hold. May peace and precious memories eventually replace the heart break. Love and strength to you all.

Marshall was one of my most important friends from my youth. Many times I felt he knew me more than I knew myself. He has this charisma that lightening up the room. I will miss that energy.
I will forever miss him and still cannot quite believe he has gone.
My love and deepest condolences to his whole family.
He was so special and I am so honoured to have called him a dear friend.
All love,
Poppy

My darling Marsh was always a bright light in any room. He always had a great smile, a kind word or a lovely hug for you. Despite that wonderful exterior, there was an internal battle he was always bravely fighting. This went on pretty much through his whole life, even as a young boy. He had lots of wonderful people helping along the way, but couldn't seem to get ahead of it. He provided strength and comfort for his friends and was intensely kind to people. this is what made Marsh the happiest. He was a very loving son and brother. Family meant everything to Marsh and he was always grateful for the love that he received. We will all miss his vibrant presence and will love him forever.
You were so brave Marsh.
I love you, Mom

Paolo and I send our deepest condolences to the family & those closest to Marshall.
It is a tragedy to hear of his passing, it is a tragedy to have lost such a wonderful soul so young.
We will always remember Marshall for his infectious smile & pure heart. Marshall made friends easy & those who met him, instantly were attracted to his witty charm. We were blessed to be in his circle, to know him for the chef he was & the friendship he gave. He is missed. His bright smile is missed. Our dear, sweet friend, your memory will be carried on.

As a fellow Bethune boy at TCS, Marshall was a great guy to have in the house. He was a key feature in the 09' grad year and brought a warmth to the house and to the school at large. At times, Marshall helped the housemasters keep some of us in line and even helped a few guys avoid some of the inevitable gatings that so many of us endured.
It's tough hearing the news, he was truly a standup guy who brought a great energy anytime we met up in the years after graduation. He will be missed dearly.

There´s no one who loved stronger or cared deeper than Marsh. The giver of the biggest hugs, warmest snuggles and unconditional, unwavering love. He was truly the most loving bear. You could always count on him to be the first and last in the lake or pool, while beating everyone at yard games or board games in between. You could find Marsh in his Carhart´s felling trees one day, and in one of his stunning suits the next day. He shared his love not only through his food, but by being the best belay and climbing partner, canoe stern, fellow SUP boarder, cat dad, and road trip co-pilot. Keeping memories of the "mmm" sound you´d make during hugs close to my heart. Rest in peace bear.

The memory of Marsh is one I will cherish forever. He was like a brother, the greatest friend and roommate. We built a bar together in our living room in university, it wasn't much but it lead to many great get togethers. Marsh was a great host, the life of the party. And the food was next level, Marsh redefined the late night snack for those that had the pleasure of tasting his creations. He was a beautiful soul, and my heart goes out to those that loved him. He will be dearly missed and forever remembered. Love you Marsh, rest in peace.

I am so saddened to hear of this news. My love goes out to the whole Pitfield family and everyone in Marshall´s life.
Marshall could not have been a more generous and kind person. No matter how much time had passed between our last hang out he always made it feel like we saw each other the week before. Marshall´s passion in the kitchen always really impressed me and there was never a shortage of great meals when we were together. I will think of you anytime I´m cooking away. Miss you buddy and I hope you can now Rest In Peace.
