There must be hundreds of us, thousands maybe, who have been inspired by Marshall’s work ethic, his passion for wood, his artistic eye, his indomitable optimism, and his love of a good, dirty job. Of the many moments we shared, my favorite memories are of working together on his desperately dangerous portable sawmill, grinding away at red pine and spruce logs to create the Children’s Farmyard. He loved that mill because it was clever, practical, and just a little bit dangerous. Like him. The inspiration he has been to generations of worker bees like me will ripple outward for ages and ages to come. His life was truly a good job done.
