Marshall Bridges Obituary
Marshall Bridges
December 11, 1986 – September 9, 2025
Kenneth Marshall Bridges, age 38, of Mississippi, passed away on September 9, 2025. He leaves behind a legacy of deep love, quiet strength, and unforgettable memories.
Marshall is survived by his beloved daughter, Valerie Bridges, who was the light of his life. He is also survived by his sister, Alana Clark, his brother Nolan Bridges, and his cherished nieces and nephews: Christopher Riley Bridges, Kiley Doughty, Addison Marie Bridges, Layne Clark, and Leyton Clark.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Penny Ann Bridges and Gerald Bane Bridges, and his grandparents, Elizabeth Sibley and Robert “Bob” Sibley.
Marshall, often described as a gentle giant, lived with a heart full of love and a soul full of adventure. He had a spontaneous spirit, a magnetic presence, and a kindness that left a lasting impression on everyone he met. He didn’t just love—he loved deeply. Whether it was his family, or friends , Marshall had a way of making people feel seen and valued.
His life, though far too short, was rich in moments that mattered: laughter that echoed, stories shared, spontaneous road trips, and time spent with those he held dear. His uniqueness wasn’t just in how he lived, but in how he made others feel—safe, understood, and loved.
He will be deeply missed and forever remembered.

Chapel service will be held Saturday at 11am from the Ott and Lee Chapel in Morton.
