Just got word of Marshall's death this morning at the informal Falk employee breakfast at Genesis Restaurant on Hwy 100.

Marshall was an unforgettable man. He was always in good spirits and congenial. During the Viet Nam war he was an ally with us who wanted it to end.

My condolences to the family.

I remember Mr. Britton as a kind and loving man who put his family first. I went to school with Ronald, 1st through 12th grade at St Benedict the Moor. Sometimes on Sunday after Mass I would be at Ronny's house at lunch time. Mr. Britton would invite me to share lunch with the family, some of the kids would not want to eat. He would say,"come and sit and watch us eat". They end up eating something with us. My prayers go out to The Family, He is in a better Place. We will all miss him. Larry Sumner

My prayer goes out to the Britton family. I met Mr & Mrs Britton while employed with Medical Clincic about 17 years ago. Mr Britton would always say to me, Is your husband a good cook? This is information that I had shared with him. It was always a pleasure to see Mr & Mrs Britton. I was invited to their 50th anniversary and it was a joyous event listening to the stories and the love that was displayed at Aliotos. I pray that God strengthen you and keep you.

Dear Family of Marshall Britton,
I met your husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather when he would visit the UWM Bookstore when Mike & I worked there. I will never forget his smile, his gentle voice or the light in his eyes. He was a wonderful man to speak with and I always enjoyed it when he stopped by. I know you will miss him. Although these times are not without pain, he now shares in the resurrection and new life at the heavenly banquet. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Linda Hausladen & John Habeck

Dear Mrs. Britton & Family:

My thoughts and prayers are with you as you deal with the passing of Marshall. Marshall struck me as a gentle soul who simply loved others in his gentle and loving way. It is our faith during this Lenten season that summons us to believe that Marshall's "life is simply changed, not ended." He is at peace because he was such a good "servant" of our Lord. I hold you all in prayer.

Love,
Fr. Marv Knighton
