Obituary for Jim “Kenneth James” Marshall
MARSHALL, KENNETH JAMES
July 8, 1930 –Jan. 2, 2020
A bright light went out in our family’s life when Jim passed away peacefully at the age of 89, with family
by his side. He was bigger than life and filled up a room with his smile and laughter. He could keep you
entertained for hours with his stories of his adventurous, challenging and rewarding life. He is
predeceased by his cherished wife Meryl. Devoted and loving father to his children, Lori Kartes (Rob), Don (Darlene), and Wendy. Proud and adored Papa to Jocelyn, Avery, Brendan and Greg Kartes, Shelby, Cameron and Brady Marshall, Tyler and Kayla Fitch. A special thank you to the nurses and doctors at St. Vincent’s Hospital and Ottawa Hospital, Civic Campus (5 th floor and AMA Unit) for their passionate care and support. A private service was held on Friday, August 28th. In memoriam donations to Queensway-Carleton Hospital Foundation’s Hopes Rising Campaign or another charity of your choice would be appreciated.
