BRIEF BIOGRAPHY of ROBERT MARSHALL BROUGH:
Robert Marshall Brough was born on 7 June 1914 in Lyman, Wyoming. His parents were Ernest LeRoy Brough and Mima Marshall. Marshall's father was a successful rancher and blacksmith in Lyman, but died at the age of 33 during the flu epidemic of 1918. Following her husband's death, Marshall's mother moved her five children to Evanston, Wyoming, and then in 1930 to Ogden, Utah. Marshall graduated from Ogden High School in 1932. During the Great Depression years of 1933-1934, Marshall worked for the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) as a "Jack Hammer" and "Dynamiter" building a road through Blacksmith Fork Canyon east of Hyrum, Utah.
In 1934, Marshall moved to Los Angeles, California, taking a job with Sears Roebuck and Company in 1935. Marshall met his future wife, Utahna Clayton Peterson, at the LDS Wilshire Ward church in Los Angeles. On 11 June 1937, Marshall married Utahna Clayton Peterson in the LDS Temple in Salt Lake City, Utah. Marshall and Utahna were the parents of five children, and raised their family in southern California. Marshall stood over six feet, six inches tall, and had a talented and powerful deep "basso profundo" voice. Between 1935 and 1954, he sang with the Los Angeles Grand Opera Company, which periodically performed at the Hollywood Bowl and the Philharmonic and Shrine Auditoriums.
For over 43 years, Marshall worked for Sears Roebuck and Company, retiring as manager of the Inglewood Sears Store in 1978. In the world of business Marshall was well known for his integrity and managerial skills. He served as President of the Inglewood Chamber of Commerce, Inglewood Rotary Club and Inglewood Merchants Association, and was Council Commissioner of the Los Angeles Area Council of the Boy Scouts of America.
Marshall was a very generous man and expressed his love to others through his service to them--both within his family and to others he associated with. Marshall and Utahna loved and enjoyed their children and extended family, and took many family trips throughout California and the western United States. They were active members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), and contributed considerable time and resources towards documenting their ancestries and conducting genealogical research.
In May 1979, Marshall and Utahna moved from Los Angeles, California, to Orem, Utah. On 8 September 1979, Marshall died of a heart attack in Orem, Utah, and was buried on 12 September 1979 in Aultorest Cemetery in Ogden, Utah.
