Marshall J Ciccone, 74, passed away June 9, 2021 in Fort Myers, Florida from complications of Covid-19.

Marshall is preceded in death by his parents, Marshall H Ciccone and Patricia Nester of Utica NY.

Marshall is survived by his wife of 53 years, Joan (LaValla) Ciccone, two daughters Rhonda Ciccone (Dan Richer) of Cape Coral, FL, Heather Ciccone of Brewerton, NY and two grandchildren, Dominick Marshall and Danielle Isabelle Ciccone. He is also survived by his sisters Sharon Boehlert of Utica, NY, Roxanne Ciccone of Gainesville FL and several nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

Originally from Utica, NY, Marshall and Joan built a home together in Barneveld, NY and later moved to Syracuse, NY where he worked for 31 years at Will & Baumer Candle Co. and worked his way to become the President of the company. He graduated from Utica College with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business and was a rare and one of a kind businessman that people trusted and appreciated his approach to being fair and honorable as an employer. Marshall is known for his dedication and

loyalty to his family. He was always kind, gentle, loving and funny, extremely hard-working, a provider, a spiritual mentor, a lover of life and adventure. He loved music and loved to dance. Marshall was an avid hunter, fisherman, a loyal, life-long sports fan to the NY Yankees, NY Rangers and NY Giants. Marshall is a spiritual man of unwavering faith in God and has volunteered as a religious education teacher and spiritual mentor for many years. He most recently was a volunteer tutor for young adults to obtain a GED.

Most of all, Marshall loved being a grandfather, his grandchildren called  him “Nonno” they shared an unbreakable bond of unconditional love and laughter that will live on forever in our memories.

At this time there are no services planned. The family requests to be kind to others and please “pay it forward” in his honor.

    Today is for you Dad. We are picking you up and taking you to the beach for a beautiful sunset send off. I know you are with us every day, but I feel your spirit more today. We will play your songs for you and of course share some inspiring words of your wisdom and the love we have for you. No words will express what we truly feel for you. "Grief is just proof that love exists." We miss you more than ever. ❤

    It's the 4th Wednesday since you passed on. We are here with Mom as Hurrican Elsa hits. Dad, it's so hard without you.. I just dont know how to do life without you. You've always been here, you've always been able to tell me how to get through and encouraged me when I felt lost. We need you, I love you so much and wish you here.

    3 weeks ago, I sat by your bedside, singing to you " I Can Only Imagine", praying with you, Psalm 23, PSALM 91, playing music I know you loved as I let go of the human part of you and grabbed tighter to your soul. I don't know where the days have gone or how we have gotten through without you. Today I sit here wishing I could hug you and talk to you like we used to. I'm holding onto the gratitude of all you have been in my life and my kids life. Missing you gets deeper and I feel broken but at the same time I am staying strong as you would want me to. I love you and I will never stop missing you.

    Marshall it is so hard to believe you are gone and that we will not be able to see you or hear your voice again. You were taken away from us to soon. We will miss all the loving times we shared together as a family. We have laughed together, celebrated together and cried together. Your heart was always so big and you would do anything you could for anyone. We know your in heaven now and that you are looking down over us all smiling with Mom Dad Grandma and Grandpa. We love you and will forever miss you.

    So many people are heartbroken by your passing Dad. I still can't believe it's true. I miss you more than ever. Every day gets a little harder. Father's Day, although a hard day, it gave me a gift of hearing your voice on the kids voice mails. It was music to my ears. You'd be humbled by all the love from everyone reaching out to us.
    Thank you to all those that have shared memories and your love on here. It means so much to all of us.

He will remain in our heart and memories. God must have a special plan for such a wonderful person.Our hearts go out to the entire family.

    Heather, I believe that you father would be proud of how you captured his life, the man, father, husband and grandfather that he was. Having worked with Marshall for many of those years at Will & Baumer I can honestly say I am honored to have worked and shared some life with him. He had a gentle way about him, always kind and always putting others ahead of himself as he led at Will & Baumer with servant leadership. I consider him to have been a friend not just a co-worker. I'll raise a glass of wine to my friend and to his family. Thoughts and prayers are sent your way Joan, Rhonda and Heather.
