Marshall was and is still the fabric of our community. From the Farm itself, to the craft school to many of the shops in the village, we all have grown up and into our lives with Marshall with his big, warm smile and his caring for all of us.
In our shop, the coffee counter, is Black Walnut that he and Nick Cowles milled up from a lightning strike at Shelburne Orchards, so now , more than ever, I think of him when I see those counters. The memorial today gave me even a broader picture of how he touched and inspired and loved so many. We are all better people for having had him in our lives
