Jason David Marshall was truly a jack of all trades, a man with an extraordinary ability to figure things out and get the job done. Jason had an intense passion for solving whatever task was placed before him and possessed a natural talent for working with his hands, machinery, and mechanical systems.
Throughout his life, Jason worked in many trades and industries, including as a mechanic, contractor, steel worker, and construction site manager. Jason was someone who could look at a problem and instinctively begin figuring out how to fix it. Whether behind the wheel of a truck, operating a camper, riding a motorcycle, or maneuvering machinery, Jason had an exceptional understanding of how things moved and worked. He was, without question, one of the best drivers I had ever known.
Jason also had a creative side and enjoyed making music as a hobby. It was one of the many ways Jason expressed himself and found enjoyment in life. He had a natural curiosity and a willingness to try his hand at different things, always finding another skill to explore or another challenge to take on.
But perhaps what speaks most to Jason's life is the number of people he touched along the way. Jason was deeply loved, remembered, and valued by many. His presence meant something different to each person who knew him—whether through family, friendship, work, or the countless moments shared throughout his life. Jason had a way of leaving an impression, and the outpouring of love and support following his passing is a reflection of just how many lives he touched.
Above all, Jason was a father. He leaves behind his three children, Lliam DeCoteau, Jahsai Marshall, and Livon Marshall, who will carry his memory forward. His children will remember their father for his many talents, his determination, his creativity, and his unique ability to take on whatever challenge was placed before him. His role as their father will remain an important and lasting part of his legacy.
Jason David Marshall leaves behind his wife, Lidra DeCoteau-Marshall; his mother, Shaaron Marshall; and his father, Augustine Paul.
He is also survived by his siblings, Richie Marshall, Giselle Marshall, Reccia Marshall, John Marshall, and Sean Marshall; his sisters, Renisha Noel and Hidi Noel; and his nephew, Kelson Noel.
Jason's family extends beyond those named here to the many relatives, friends, colleagues, and loved ones whose lives he touched throughout his journey.
Though Jason's life was unexpectedly cut short, the memories he created, the skills he shared, the people he influenced, and the love that surrounds his family will continue his story. Jason will be remembered not simply for what he did, but for the lives he touched and the unique presence he brought into the world.
