Molly Marshall Obituary
September 1, 1954-March 31, 2019
Molly Cecilia Marshall passed away of heart complications at the age of 64. She was raised in Lafayette, California and remained in the East Bay Area for the remainder of her life. Her beautiful singing voice, love for her family, and passion for the outdoors will be remembered fondly.She is survived by her daughters, Nina Mastick and Carey Prokosch, son-in-law and grandson, Danny and Davis Prokosch, sisters Ann Filson and Ellen Marshall, brothers Mark and Paul Marshall, brother-in-law Dick Filson, and sisters-in-law Margaret and Gale Marshall, and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded by parents Andrew and Marybeth Marshall.
Molly brought immense happiness to all she knew with her true kindness, musical talent, green-thumb, and delicious meals cooked from the heart. She had many roles throughout her life: daughter, sister, friend, bandmate, mother, colleague, auntie, music teacher, 4-H leader, and most recently, Grammy. She made an indelible impact on so many lives and her spirit will continue to shine down on us to provide encouragement.
Celebration of life: Sunday, April 28th, 3pm; Lafayette Community Center, 500 St. Mary's Rd. Lafayette, CA.

Molly was a good friend and fine person -- always pleasant, positive and enthusiastic. She always laughed at my bad puns and was appreciative of offbeat humor, which was personally endearing to me. It was an honor to help manage her singing career when she was a member of the band Climate. She'll be greatly missed by all who knew her.
