Marshall Jay Katz

Toby I am so sorry to learn so late that Marshall has passed. I have attempted to reach out many times. I think about how grateful I am that you and Marshall afforded the opportunity to me working in your home and passing my name, business to many in the Jewish community. I want you to know without Marshall I doubt my company would have known success. Toby I think of you and Marshall daily. I will continue to thank God for his existence and want you to know you and Marshall will always be...

Marshall was such a nice person and has such a beautiful family. Toby, you and Marshall were a handsome couple; and the kids adorable. Having worked for Marshall for several years, I knew the whole family. Marshall was kind-of cowboy tough, very funny and very kind; and a mentor to me. My heart pours out to all who miss him. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Taken too young; heaven must need him now. God Bless You.

Did I know you Toby Nitzkin. If I did not know you; I extend my deepest sympathy at the loss of your husband. Your name is so familiar.

Dear Katz Family,
We are so sorry to hear of Marshall's passing. It's been a while since we've seen all of you but as a young family Marshall truly helped shape our love for synagogue and community. May his memory be forever a blessing.

Dear Katz family, I am very sorry to hear about your loss. I was in accounting school with Marshall at the U of I back in the glory days. Our paths crossed infrequently thereafter, but when they did it was an extreme pleasure. You have my condolences. Bob Weisman

To Mrs. Katz, Geri, Steve and the entire Katz Family,
My heartfelt condolence to all of you on Marshal’s passing. It’s been a very long time since we were neighbors (and kids) on Greenwood Street. Marshal, your big, strong confident older brother; beautiful/ smiling Geri (with her own secret bedroom hiding place!); and little Stevie traipsing behind... This fond image is forever etched into my memory. May your memories be a source of comfort.
