Raymond David Marshall
January 25, 1943 - January 23, 2018
Raymond David Marshall, 74, of Delray Beach, formerly of New York City, where he met his wife of 50 years, Arlene Bonasia Marshall, passed away peacefully surrounded by family, in his home on January 23, 2018. Raymond was born on January 25, 1943 in Bronx, NY to Morris and Mary Marshall. He attended Polytechnic High School of Engineering in Brooklyn, NY and Texas A&M. Ray began his career with Local 3 IBEW in 1961, working at the World’s Fair in Queens, NY and resided in Flushing, NY. Ray was a hard worker and a family man. Ray loved to play Bocce, an avid reader and die-hard fisherman. He loved the land and sea as long as his feet never left the ground. He lived in a “no flyzone.” Ray loved all sports, but his favorite was football. Ray was proud of his children and their successes, and as time passed the bonds of their relationships grew stronger. Pop-Pop was “his” chosen name to the grandchildren and he succumbed to their every demand. He never wanted to be the person that said “no.” There is nothing more endearing than seeing a grandfather create a connection with his grandchildren that is unbreakable. Raymond is survived by his wife, Arlene Marshall, and four children Scott Marshall, of NY, NY, Tammy Marshall, of Huntington, NY, Wendy Marshall Martin & spouse Chris Martin, grandchildren Jake and Madison Martin of Lancaster, PA and Raymond Marshall, of NY, NY. A Celebration of Life is scheduled for Friday January 26, 2018, from 2:00-4:00PM, (service begins at 2:30PM) at SINAI MEMORIAL CHAPEL, located at 15120 Jog Road, Delray Beach, FL 33446. All are welcome to attend and celebrate Raymond’s life. The family will not be sitting Shiva after the service.
