Ronald Marsh
1936-2019
Clarence Ronald Marsh, age 82, of Trenton, passed
away Friday, February 1, 2019, in Queen’s General Hospital,
Liverpool. Born in Trenton, he was a son of the late Robert and Almira
Catherine (Tanner) Marsh. He served as a Corporal in the Canadian
Armed Forces with the 442 Squadron; he was retired from Northern Pulp.
He was a member of the United Church of Canada. Dad loved fishing, a
good western, traveling across Canada to see family, creating
impromptu songs (albeit somewhat inappropriate at times). He was a
story teller, leaving us to guess whether it was fact or
fiction…he loved creating a good rumor and laughing at our
gullibility. He always had a twinkle in his eye and was quick to laugh
but the thing that most defined Papa, was his love for his family.
Simply put, nothing mattered more than his family. He is survived by
his children: Leslie (Travis Payzant), Trenton;
« Little » Ron (Corinne Burton Marsh), Liverpool;
Lauren (Gary Knickle), Hammonds Plains; siblings: Myrna (Lane
Humphreys), Trenton; Jeanette Robertson, Trenton; grandchildren:
Nicholi Marsh, Cale Delorey, Ben Marsh, Connor Marsh, Brynn Marsh
Knickle; great-granddaughter: Kenzie Claire Delorey. He was
predeceased by sisters, Roberta Catherine and Barbara Marsh;
brother-in-law, Roland Robertson; beloved niece, Tracey Leger; and
nephew, Sean Humphreys. Cremation has taken place. Visitation 2-4 and
7-9 pm Tuesday, February 5, in the R.H. Porter Funeral Home, 55 Almont
Ave., New Glasgow. Funeral service 2 pm Wednesday, February 6, in
First United Church, 81 High St., Trenton, with Rev. Wade Reppert
officiating. Burial will be in Hillside Cemetery at a later date. In
lieu of flowers, Dad loved to give to multiple charities, if you wish,
we would encourage you do to the
same.
Nos plus sincères sympathies à la famille et aux amis de Ronald Marsh 19362019..
