First hole-in-one at the Country Club of Colorado. Ran a successful family business for decades. Proudest father of four. Could spin a tale and tell a joke like no other. This sums up Marshall Hugh Silver.

Life-long resident of Colorado Springs, Colorado, passed away peacefully of natural causes on September 28th, 2021 at Medallion Retirement Community in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Marshall was 83 yrs old.

Marshall is survived by his children, Jennifer Wolf (Neil), Alli Robitaille (Mark), and Ben Silver (Hannah), two amazing women, Joan McCarty (mother of Jennifer and Alli), Mary Stark (mother of Ben and Max), and his sister, Jo´Ann Supperstein (David), 5 grandchildren, and one great granddaughter, Marshall was predeceased by his son, Max Silver, his parents, Hyman and Jeanette Silver, and his brother, Bruce Silver.

Marshall was born on September 19, 1938. He graduated from Colorado Springs High School (Palmer High School) in 1956 and Colorado College in 1962.

His family is so grateful to Medallion Retirement Community and Pikes Peak Hospice and Palliative Care. A private family gathering will be held at a later date.

Marshall was a dear soul. We had inspiring conversations, mutual likes and dislikes, lots of outrageous humor and good food. He ate everything I cooked and shared with him and only once had a negative comment. In his defense, it TASTED like a cream puff, but admittedly there was no PUFF to it. What a great friend Marshall was. You all know that.

Marshall was a fellow resident at Glenpond apartments and I had the honor of meeting him several years ago. We would often spend Saturday mornings or afternoons socializing with fellow Glenpond residents, including a mutual dear friend Bonnie, in the Glenpond Pond House. There, we would laugh and have wonderful conversations over coffee. Marshall was a very articulate, intelligent and caring man who had a heart of gold and a sense of humor that was extremely prolific and outrageously funny!! Marshall will be missed by all of us--he will eternally remain in our hearts!! We love and miss you dear friend. May you rest in peace.

I only met Marshall a handful of times and those were times through my older brothers, Mike & Warren Leonard. Mike & Marshall talked about starting a softball team and calling it the "M&M's", and Warren worked with Marshall at his supply business. Marshall was a character, to say the least.
My heart goes out to all of his family and friends. Muah!
