Matthew J. Marshall

DICKINSON, N.D. — Matthew J. Marshall, 20, a resident of Dickinson, North Dakota and Chassell, joined his Lord, grandfathers, Donald J. Salo and Harry T. Marshall Sr., along with Uncle Harry T. Marshall Jr., on the big hunt.

He is watched over by his aunts, Michelle (Salo) Haddad and Aimmee Sandra J. Blom.

He was born on February 17, 1996, in Hancock, a son of Jon and Jennifer (Salo) Marshall.

Matt was raised in Chassell and was a graduate of the Chassell High School with the Class of 2014. He attended Vermillion Community College in Ely, Minnesota, and Gogebic Community College.

Matthew had previously been employed with the Michigan DNR and Northern Hardwoods before moving to Dickinson this past October for work.

Matthew was a member of S.S. Peter & Paul Lutheran Church of Houghton. He also was active with Keweenaw Car Club. He loved the outdoors, and spent his free time hunting, fishing, mudding and just enjoying his home in the U.P.

He held many jobs and made friends wherever he went. With a big heart, a tow strap, roll of duct tape and tools always with him, he was willing to help anyone with anything they needed.

He leaves behind his parents, Jon and Jennifer Marshall of Chassell; his brother, Zachariah Mills of Chassell; his grandmothers, Sharon (Jim) Berner of Canton, North Carolina, Mary Marshall of Negaunee; his uncles and aunt, Jaysen Salo of Chassell, Jamal Haddad of Waynesville, North Carolina, Richard (Sue) Marshall of Negaunee and Deborah (John) Marshall Coonrod of Sagola; his cousins, Christopher Salo, Scott Salo, Richard (Sophia) Marshall, Peter (Marjorie) Marshall, Paul (Linda) Marshall, Tom (Callan) Marshall, Jacquline (Dan) Sellnow and Brad Kellan.
