TO EXPRESS PROFOUND SORROW UPON THE PASSING OF DR. HENRY T. MARSHALL, JR., OF BLYTHEWOOD AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HIS FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the many friends and admirers of Dr. Henry T. Marshall, Jr., of Blythewood were saddened to learn of his death on August 14, 2018, at the age of seventy-seven; and

Whereas, born to Henry T. Marshall, Sr., and Vivian Brier Marshall, Henry T. Marshall, Jr., came into this world on May 6, 1941, in Columbia's historic Good Samaritan Hospital. He was the youngest of four children and the only son of the family; and

Whereas, after his graduation from Booker T. Washington High School (1959), the young Henry, in further preparation for his life's work, attended Morehouse College and earned degrees at Benedict College (1964) and Howard University College of Dentistry; and

Whereas, in 1970, having returned to Columbia, Dr. Marshall entered into practice with Dr. Noble Cooper. Later, Dr. Marshall began a solo career on Farrow Road, where he practiced for more than fifty years; and

Whereas, Henry Marshall strongly believed in active community involvement, and he put his convictions into action by serving his community in various capacities. He served on numerous community boards, among them the Urban League, and conducted free dental clinics. He was passionate about his fraternity involvement with Alpha Iota Boule, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., Omicron Phi Chapter; and the Savannah Chapter of Guardsmen; and

Whereas, as a man of faith, Dr. Marshall was a lifelong member of St. Luke's Episcopal Church, where he served his God in various capacities throughout the years. In his leisure time, he was an avid golfer and enjoyed gardening; and

Whereas, Dr. Marshall leaves to cherish his memory his loving wife and companion of thirty-eight years, Janice Wannamaker Marshall; a loving and attentive daughter, Jai-Shirelle Wannamaker Marshall; two sisters, Henri Etta Bynum and Marion Davis; three special nieces, Constance Aguayo, Gwendolyn Jackson, and Dr. Angela Davis; a nephew, Offie Clark; his mother-in-law, Verna Abney; and a host of other family members and friends. He will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, express profound sorrow upon the passing of Dr. Henry Thomas Marshall, Jr., of Blythewood and extend the deepest sympathy to his family and many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Mrs. Janice Wannamaker Marshall for the family.
