Patricia Ruth Marshall, 93, Salina, passed Monday, April 29, 2024. She was born December 3, 1930, in Salina Kansas to James T. Marshall and Ruth E. (Shaw) Marshall.

Patricia spent most of her childhood in Salina and later San Fransico, California during the Second World War. After the war Patricia moved back to Salina where she graduated from Salina High in 1948. After high school Patricia worked as a secretary in the department of transportation in Salina. After 40 years Patricia retired. Patricia was a homebody, enjoying the loving company of her family, friends, and beloved dog Muggins. Patricia also enjoyed crafting. She would play Woody Woodpecker and other old cartoons for her nieces and nephews on a vintage projector in the basement. Patricia enjoyed entertaining her nieces and nephews and loved them more, in her eyes they could do no wrong. For many of her nieces and nephews Patricia was the best aunt they could ask for. Although Patricia was a homebody, she often accompanied her sister Barbara and husband Ted to trips throughout the United States seeing much of the natural wonder it has to offer. Being an amateur photographer of the family, she made sure to take photos of every occasion on her trusty 8mm camera. Later, Patricia also took up videography and continued the tradition of capturing all the wonderful moments on film. Patricia cherished the time she spent with her family and friends fueling her desire to put everything on film. So, she could always look back on all the beautiful and amazing times she spent with her family.

Special Thanks to Matt Wire for taking care of his wonderful aunt for 12 years so she can stay in her own home.

Patricia was preceded in death by her parents, James and Ruth Marshall, brother Charles R. Marshall, daughter-in-law Joyce A. Marshall, and nephew Alfred T. Marshall

Survivors include Barabra K. and Husband Ted of Salina; eight nephews, and two nieces.
