With deepest sorrow, we announce Mr. Tony Andre Marsh, 58, our beloved son, brother and family member, passed away peacefully in Mableton, Ga. on Thursday, March 18, 2021.
Tony was strong, courageous and fought a good fight during his five-year battle with carcinoid cancer.
He was always positive, encouraging, humble and strong. Tony Marsh was born Aug. 27,1962 at Mary Immaculate Hospital in Hampton to Mr. Charles and Mrs. Laura Marsh.
Tony grew up in Mathews County and attended Mathews County schools. He graduated from Mathews High School in 1980.
He worked in Williamsburg shortly before attending Old Dominion University (ODU) in Norfolk. Tony was in the co-Op program and graduated from ODU in 1986 with a bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering.
He was preceded in death by his father, Mr. Charles E. Marsh. He is survived by his adoring mother, Mrs. Laura E. Marsh of Mathews; and sister, Debra B. Marsh of Bowie, Md. Also surviving are his aunts, uncles and a host of cousins.
Those who knew Tony, even just a little, lost a shinning light in their lives. He will be remembered as a wonderful quiet man that radiated joy, love and peace.
He will forever be in our hearts and always on our minds. Rest peacefully my brother. We shall meet again.
A memorial service will be announced at a later date, conducted in two locations — Virginia and Atlanta. Send words of condolences to the guest book at SouthCare Cremation & Funeral Society at https://www.southcare.us. Click on view obituaries.
