Rowland "Rollo" Hunter Marshall

On Monday November 14th, Rowland “Rollo” Hunter Marshall passed away at home surrounded by family, one day after his 55th birthday. Rowland was born on November 13, 1967 to Captain Willard Dale Marshall, USMC and Marie Alexander Marshall, at Andrews Airforce Base, Maryland. 

Rowland grew up in Fargo, North Dakota where he enjoyed playing hockey. He spent his summers growing up on Lake Maud, MN, fishing with his grandparents. In the fall, he would enjoy hunting with his grandfather. 

Rowland married Christina Cruser on October 20th, 2013 and became a blended family with his two sons: Alexander Nathanial Marshall and Andrew Dale Marshall and Christina’s four children: Matthew Thomas Borschowa, Malina Janae Ryan, Brandon Charles Geertson and Brian Christopher Geertson. He was also a proud grandfather to Matthew’s three children, Lauren, Paige and Ethan.

Ever since he was a young boy, he dreamed of owning and riding a Harley Davidson motorcycle. Riding was an important part of Rowland’s life where he gained the road name Rollo. The brotherhood and friendships he experienced through the riding community was something he cherished every day.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents and his father, Captain Willard Dale Marshall, USMC. They will have a lot of catching up to do because he was killed in action in Vietnam when Rowland was 6 months old.

Rowland is survived by the love of his life, Christina, their six children, three grandchildren, his mother Marie A. Marshall and numerous extended family members. He also leaves behind many who call him “brother.”

A celebration of life will be held at Powderhaus Brewing Company, December 3rd, 2022 from 1pm to 4pm. A Ride for Rollo will be held in the summer of 2023, details to follow. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to a Prostate Cancer Awareness charity of your choice.
