MARSHALL, Kenneth Eugene 'Tony' - (1935 - 2020)
With profound sadness we announce that Tony passed away peacefully at home on Friday July 24, 2020.
Tony is deeply missed by his loving wife Holly, children Kenneth (Kim), Penny (Warren), Deirdre (Derek), eight grandchildren, two great grandchildren, siblings Patricia, Aubrey and Christopher, many nieces and nephews, and cousins around the world.
There are many lives worthy of praise and remembrance and Tony’s was one of them. Born in Karachi, educated at St. Edward’s Boy’s School in Simla, India, he emigrated to Canada at the age of 29 with his young family, paving the way for his parents and siblings to later follow.
Always interested and always interesting was Tony, along with being a voracious reader with a passion for people, life and learning. (At 61 he learned to speak Spanish and earned his Honours B.A.). He took enormous pleasure in the company of his treasured family and many friends, never failing to ask them, “What are you reading?” Tony loved listening to music and had a particular passion for jazz as well as for soccer and of course - dogs.
He was modest, unassuming and responded to “Thank you," with “Think nothing of it." A true gentleman and a scholar who leaves behind a great legacy of family and values. He will be missed immensely.
Many thanks to all the doctors, nurses and staff at UHN, TGH, PMH, The Temmy Latner Centre for Palliative Care, and Spectrum Health Care for their kind and compassionate care.
Arrangements with Rosar-Morrison funeral home, Toronto. Donations in Tony’s memory can be made to The Temmy Latner Centre for Palliative Care or to a charity of your choice.
