Our prayers are with you Sherry and you family.Your husband will be missed. Nanleen,Lina and the Nesbitt family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Mrs. Sherrie and all the family. We always enjoyed visiting with Marshall when he dropped by our shop to bring cars to be serviced. Everyone at the shop loved him, because he was such a kind and gentle soul. Even after we sold our shop we stayed in touch! We especially enjoyed the best-we-ever-had homemade cobblers from his kitchen! Whenever our church Sunday School class had a social, his cobblers were always requested! Our special friend will truly be missed. We rejoice that Marshall is now at the biggest banquet table feasting in God's presence.
Love and prayers, Tommy and Tammy Simpson

To Marshall's Family, I cannot tell you how thankful I am to have had the opportunity to cross paths with Marshall. We had worked together at Milliken for many year, but where I really got to know Marshall was the many miles that we ran together. What a great person. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Isaiah 40:31 - But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not be faint.

To the Miller Family: Please accept my heartfelt sympathy. Marshall was a dear friend and co-worker at Milliken & Company for many years. I would kid him about running (jetting) all around town for exercise. His running days are over and now he can Walk in Jerusalem just like John. May God continue to bless the family.
