Dorothy Marsh, 94, of Knoxville, Tennessee, went to be with the Lord on Sunday, April 26, 2026. She was preceded in death by her husband, Frank Marsh; her son, Johnny Marsh, her parents, Nelson and Maybell Breeden; and her sisters and brother. She is survived by her son, Richard Marsh (Lisa) and her grandchildren, Elyse Large (Hunter), Derek Marsh (Ashley), Keith Marsh and her great-grandchildren.
She will be remembered for her gentle spirit, sweet nature, and the quiet way she made everyone feel deeply loved. She had a true mother’s heart, caring for others with kindness and grace, and she was especially proud of her role as Nana. Her love for her family was constant and unwavering, and being surrounded by them brought her the greatest joy.
Her faith was the foundation of her life, guiding the way she loved and cared for those around her. She lived it out daily—not in grand gestures, but in quiet acts of compassion, patience, and selflessness. To be around her was to feel seen, cared for, and at peace.
She leaves behind a legacy of love, warmth, and faith that will continue to live on in all who knew her.
