Thomas Wayne Marshall, "TOM" to those who knew him, passed peacefully through heaven's gate on Sunday, November 21, 2021. He is preceded in death by his parents Guy and Helen Marshall and survived by four brothers, his wife Carol, two daughters, Victoria and Shaunna Marshall, stepdaughter Heather Stone (Alan) and two grandsons, Christian and Noah Stone.
Tom was born January 11, 1945. He attended Emmerich Manual High School 1958-62. After graduation, Tom answered the call to serve his country. He proudly enlisted in the United States Air Force in August of 1963. He rose through the ranks and was promoted to Airman First Class, received The Air Force Good Conduct Medal and the title of Small Arms Expert Marksman. After fulfilling his contract, he returned home to Indiana and started a family.
Tom had a career with Eli Lilly and Company for 44 years, during which he held many positions within the company. He was also the Secretary for both the Thundering Herd Colts Fan Club and the Martinsville Jaycees Softball League. Tom truly enjoyed playing and watching sports. It was the love of sports that would offer him the wonderful memories of being a referee with the IHSAA and roles in both the movies "Eight Men Out" & "Hoosiers".
On June 24, 1989, Tom married his best friend and the love of his life, Carol. This began their fairy tale. They shared an unimaginable bond, an unmeasurable love and were destined to live a life full of beautiful moments. They vowed to be each other's pillar of strength and to always remain the most vibrant part of each other's soul. Tom and Carol found the kind of love that people only dream of, few people obtain, and all respect and admire.
Tom enjoyed conversations with many, yet he was a man of few words. He valued words spoken with integrity. The conversations had with Father Bill and Dr John, among others, were always ones he valued.
All who knew Tom, knew the kind of love that can not be broken by the grief of death but strengthened by God's promise of forever.
