Richard (Dick) Marshall passed away peacefully on March 3,2023 in Penetang, Ontario just days short of his 95th birthday.

He volunteered his time as treasurer for many organizations over the years including the McGill Faculty Club, Canadian Power Squadron (Lake St. Louis district), Senneville Yacht Club and Paradise Bay Estates in Bradenton.
He leaves behind his wife of 67 years Lorrie, his children Peter (Lesley) and Gehl (Raphael) along with his many grandchildren, sister-in-law, nephews and niece.
As per his wishes, there will be no visitation or service. His ashes will be interred at the cemetery in Elmvale, Ontario later this year.
Memorial donations made in his name to the Canadian Cancer Society or the McGill University Faculty of Management would be welcomed.
