Richard Curtis Marshall

May 14, 1985- August 13, 2011
On May 14, 1985 our world was graced by a soul like no other. A young man who vibrated adventure and entrepreneurship beyond his years. 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. Richard you are loved and respected by all that knew you.
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there
I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the shadow that glints in the dark
