Tribute

Marvin Earl Marshall was born on October 01, 1941, to Earl Samuel and Bernece Elsie Marshall. He passed away March 4, 2025, at home in Hideaway, TX, at the age of 83 in the arms of his wife, Robyn. Born at 333 Marshall St. in Marshall, MI, his life was a series of symbolic twists of fate. He grew up on a beef farm in Nashville, Michigan, and left home at the age of 16 with $1.65 in his pocket to pursue his dreams. With no formal education, Marvin took on jobs in wheat harvesting, construction, agriculture, dam building, factory work, and more. However, his thirst for knowledge and obsession with making things simpler caused him to become deeply involved with computers, knowing they were the way of the future and could be a tool to make major improvements. His work and inventions across the dairy industry, telecommunications industry, and other industries (and soon to be, the streaming industry) were well-known.
