With heavy hearts, we announce Gary Vance Marsh, 67, passed away on April 19th, 2025 surrounded by family, following a battle with pancreatic cancer. He was born on August 15, 1957 and lived a life filled with hunting, traveling and camping, and riding his motorcycle. Gary was a history buff, spent much of his free time in the woods and watching westerns. He enjoyed spending his winters at Orchid Lake Resort in Florida, going to the beach and discovering local attractions. Most of all, his granddaughter was a light in his life and he loved his family more than anything. He was a beloved husband, father, brother and cherished friend. Gary graduated from Titusville High School, Class of 1975. He was a U.S. Air Force Veteran and a state certified real estate appraiser and broker for 36 years. Gary and his wife transformed a previous Amish house into their family home where they raised their children and took pride in caring for their property. Gary is survived by his wife, Diane M. Marsh; children Wendy Burns and her husband Brendon and Aaron Marsh and his wife Danielle; granddaughter Emerie Burns; Brothers Eric Marsh and Greg Marsh and his wife Lela; as well as many brothers and sisters-in-law, cousins, nieces and nephews, and close friends. He was preceded in death by his mother, Karin Regina Marsh, father, Gary George Marsh and brother, Curtis James Marsh. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network at PanCAN (Pancreatic Cancer Action Network).org.

Beyond sad to learn the passing of Gary.
Attended Titusville school and Gary graduated with my brother Rick. We grew up in Cherry Tree, country neighbors and Gary recently shared some fun memories as a kid he had at our house .. Gary was a beautiful soul and clearly loved and beyond proud of his family. Thinking of you all at this most difficult time.
