An accomplished soul, who’s intelligence and generosity benefited those who surrounded him. On August 13, 2011 humankind lost that soul much too soon. If you were one of the people that knew him, count yourself lucky because no matter where you go or how long you look, you will never find a person of equal integrity, beyond reproach, a heart like no other, generosity that was beyond belief. A courageous young man who believed in his cause and his heritage. Richard is predeceased by his grandfather John Zotzman, grandfather Curly Marshall, and grandmother Joyce Marshall. He is survived by his loving family; father Richard (Bruce) Marshall, mother Denise Marshall; brothers Garrett Marshall, Nicholas Marshall and Daniel Hajt; his aunt Dena Latimer; niece Jacquelynne Hickman, in addition to many close friends.
