Brian Marshall Obituary

Brian Kenyon Marshall (May 5, 1971 - September 18, 2025).

Brian Kenyon Marshall, age 54, of Ruther Glen, Virginia, passed away unexpectedly on September 18, 2025 at St. Mary's Hospital.

Brian was born and grew up in Macon, Georgia, where he attended Windsor High School. He attended University of Georgia and loved his Georgia Bulldogs. He worked in the insurance industry for almost 30 years in sales and claims.

He is survived by his wife of 25 years, Cherie Barlow Marshall, the love of his life, and his two adored children, Isabella and Aidan; his mother Beverly Clance Bynum, father L. Wayne Marshall, sister Jennifer Fast (Michael), niece Lily Lopez (Kile) and great-niece Mila, all of Georgia. In addition, he is survived by his in-laws, Ramona and Michael Barlow, sister-in-law Holly Woodward (Craig), and great-nephew Craig, all of Virginia.

His family was his world, and he loved spending time with them on the farm and at the family river cottage, grilling great steaks, riding his Gator with his dogs, and playing golf. He will be terribly missed.

Private celebration of life will be held at a later date.
