Gilbert Marriott Obituary
July 1, 1926 - January 28, 2022
Gilbert Ray Marriott, 95, passed into the more immediate presence of the Lord on January 28, 2022. Born on July 1, 1926 to Elmer and Lola Marriott in Versailles, MO, Gil grew up on a farm with brothers, Clifford and Melvin and sister, Zella. He served in the U.S. Army and was a World War II veteran. For the next 37 years he dutifully served with the National Security Agency (NSA) in the Washington, DC metro area.
He is survived by his loving wife, Shirley, niece/stepdaughter, Dawn G. Hoback (George), godson/nephew/stepson, Ross Gobble (Kathy), Alex Helsabeck, and many nieces and nephews from Florida to North Carolina to Missouri. Murt enjoyed working hard and relaxing in equal measure throughout a very active lifetime. He traveled many places over the years throughout the US and parts of Canada, but most of all, he loved just being at home. May he rest in peace.
