After his year of active duty in the U.S. Army at Fort Chaffee, Ark., he returned to Louisville and went to University of Louisville Dental School with his GI Bill, graduating in 1968. The family then settled in Port Charlotte where he had a dental practice for 30 years.

I was sorry and saddened to hear about the passing of Dr. Marshall. He was my, and my family´s, wonderful Dentist beginning 1972 until he retired. He will be missed by all who had the privilege of meeting and knowing him. Sympathy and condolences to each of you.
