James "Jimmy" Marshall, Crisfield, MD—James "Jimmy" Marshall passed away on Saturday, August 10, 2024, leaving behind a community that deeply mourns his loss. Known for his hard work and dedication, Jimmy spent his life as a waterman in Crisfield, Maryland, where he pulled up crabs that many have enjoyed. During the off-season, he worked as a roofer and construction worker.
Jimmy’s life took a challenging turn when he was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. Despite going into remission for 14 years, the cancer tragically returned, ultimately leading to his terminal diagnosis. Throughout his life, Jimmy and his mother remained close, caring for each other through thick and thin. His passing has left his family with minimal funds for his funeral expenses.
Doanna Canapp, a close family member, has organized a fundraiser to assist with the costs associated with Jimmy’s final farewell. The fundraiser aims to raise $3,000 to cover funeral and service charges, as well as hotel expenses for the family to ensure the service is exactly as his mother wishes. As of today, the fundraiser has raised $200 from four generous donors.
Heather Velez, Jamie Askin, Ellen Atkinson, and Matt Birkelien have all contributed to the cause, with donations ranging from $25 to $100. The family expresses their deep gratitude for any support, no matter the amount, during this difficult time.
Jimmy Marshall’s memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. The community’s support during this time of need is a testament to the impact he had on those around him.
We are deeply saddened by the passing of James "Jimmy" Marshall. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family during this challenging time.
