MARSHALL, John Caleb “Jack”, 93 of Round Hill passed away peacefully in Soldier’s Memorial Hospital on December 28th, 2024, surrounded with love.

He could often be found building and crafting a variety of pieces from step stools to whirligigs with his passion for woodworking, sharing stories with friends and family about his life and adventures, or working on his latest puzzle. He always made sure to have a laugh with those around him, offering a gentleness and caring that will be missed by all who knew him. He is survived by his son, Kevin (Eliz) Marshall, Windsor ON; grandchildren, Jacquelyn (Dan), Round Hill; Pilar (Devin), Middleton; Dayten, Rocky Mountain House AB; great-grandchildren, always cherishing the moments he got to spend with them, Constantine, Zeveren, Eva, Deirdre, Amelia, Quinn, and Alexis; step-children Ede (Ted) and Robert (Norma); companion and Kevin’s mother Shirley, along with several nieces and nephews.
