Marshall Draper

Uncle Marshall kept his sister (my mom) connected to her Michigan roots for many years after their parents and sister were gone. The two of them had long and lively conversations and lots of laughter. I miss both of them so much but I am sure they are able to enjoy each other's company all the time now. Marshall and Joyce came to Texas for my wedding and he shadowed the photographer with additional photos - it was awesome. Uncle Marshall, please give Momma hug for me.

Covenant House Michigan sends our condolences to the family and friends of Marshall Draper. He was part of our Covenant House Michigan family and will be missed. Meagan Dunn, Board of Directors, Staff and Youth of Covenant House Michigan will keep Joyce, family and friends in our prayers and thoughts. May God bless and keep you forever in His Tender Loving Care. Love and prayers, Carolyn and the Covenant House Michigan Family

I'm was do sorry to learn of Marsh passing. We worked together on many EDI projects. Be was the indispensable link between old legacy systems and interfaces required for each new one. He also helped us better serve some of our largest customers for whom programming customization was required. He was humble about the work he did, but we knew he was instrumental to our success.

So sorry I couldn´t be there for you , Joyce. You and Marsh were such a big part of our visits to Kalamazoo. Sure enjoyed your company and visits. It´s so amazing Marsh grew up near my sister-in-law, many years ago in Port Huron. I will miss him, but hope to see you in your new residence one of these days. Will call you when I get home from Texas!

What a remarkable life Marsh had and know he left behind so many fond memories for his family and friends.

Too many memories to share. Uncle Marsh was such an important person in my life. He loved me and my kids. Always there for us making us laugh and sharing in important events. He will be missed but made a huge impact on this world. Rest in heaven

Wish we could be there to celebrate Marsh´s life and all the people he touched. He will not be forgotten.

Marsh was quite possibly the best human being I've had the privilege to know. You could feel the love radiating from him. Our lives were all better for having known him. My heart goes out to ALL who grieve his loss, you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Marshall was one of those rare individuals with the gift of pulling people together in friendship and camaraderie. He was the `team spirit´ of the Upjohn Information Technology (IT) area. His technical skills and ability to help other was a blessing to all of us who worked with him. Marsh and I first met at Ferris State College in 1964 as our careers in information technology were born. Marsh was the star of our class of 15 technical EDP (Electronic Data Processing) students.
