Colin Daniel Marshall, 26, of Port Clinton and formerly of Marysville, died unexpectedly Friday, Jan. 19, 2018, as a result of an automobile accident.
He was a 2009 graduate of Marysville High School and went on to graduate from the Hobart Institute of Welding Technology. He worked for Lafarge Marblehead Quarry.
He will be remembered as a big and lovable goofball whose smile would light up a room. He had the biggest heart, was loved by many and touched so many lives in his short time. The way he lit up a room with his smile, contagious laugh and sense of humor will be missed by so many who loved him.
He enjoyed living by the lake, riding his jet ski, boating and hanging out with his friends in Port Clinton and the islands. He enjoyed playing loud heavy metal music while driving his Ford truck. He was a huge fan of the Green Bay Packers and the Ohio State Buckeyes.
He was born April 13, 1991, in Marysville, to Dan (Chianti) Marshall and Mary (Matt) Smithey.
He was preceded in death by his grandmother, Mollie Marshall, and grandfathers, Gene Cardinal and Royall Smithey.
In addition to his parents, he is survived by his brothers and sisters, Alec Marshall, Lexi Chambers, Dakota Romine and Taylor and Collin Smithey; grandparents, Bill and Sylvia Marshall, Mary Jane Cardinal, Marv and Teri Romine and Felicia Smithey; and many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
Friends may call Friday, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. and from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., at Wilson Funeral Home, Mannasmith Chapel. Jack Knox will officiate funeral services at 1 p.m. Saturday at Millcreek Church of Christ. Burial will be held at Mount Herman Cemetery at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, it is requested memorial contributions be made to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation in honor of Mollie Marshall or the Alzheimer’s Association in honor of Gene Cardinal.
