All of the Salloway’s send our deepest condolences to Marshall’s family and friends. We have so many fun and fantastic memories of Marshall! He really enriched our lives with his wonderful sense of humor and caring nature. A real “mensch”.
i am offering my deepest condolences; so sorry for your loss. we used to go out drinking together some times. i tracked him down 2 years ago, but he didn’t remember me. i said don’t you remember i owned leon surf shop(advertised on WICE by the “davey jones show”) he said nope. he’s probably golfing in the clouds somewhere. he had a good sense of humor. r.i.p. marshall
Marshall was a very good sales rep. always kind, polite, and funny We enjoyed seeing Marshall in N. Y. at Vision Expo. Thanks for your service Marshall. R.I.P.
I’ve know Marshall for 55yrs, but I hadn’t seen him for a long time. We ran into each other 4 yrs ago when he moved Pompano Beach. He taught me how to play golf (his true love). I’ll miss him very much. Janet Maddox
Marshall was like family to us – a fixture in our lives for many years. We will miss Marshall’s daily calls and the play-by-play of his golf escapades. We will miss the stories of his childhood – especially his grade school poem about how his name “Glasshoffer” was something special he had to offer! We will miss calls and unique gifts from “Uncle Marsh-Man” – no one cared for and gifted 1980’s sunglasses cases like he did! We will miss him on all the Jewish holidays and all of the family milestones. Marshall, you will be there in spirit and we will set a place at the table for you. We will miss you dearly.
With love and affection,
Susan & Dunyelle, Armen & Stone
We are sorry to hear of Marshall’s passing. We felt like family when we lived on Harriet Street.
Marsh, I just want you to know I always, always loved you. L
“MG” & I had many good times together on the golf course, at the beach & going out to dinner. He loved the simple things in life & always made things interesting & always had a way to make me smile.
I will miss you “MARSH” and THANK YOU for the memories!

Eye m Marshall’s friend from Boston in the 1970s. He and eye hooked up a couple years ago in Fla. He meant a lot to me. Personally, he brought me back to the optical industry after my divorces and kept me focused. Eye truly miss him, didn’t know he had passed.
