Nelda Faye Marshall

Our dear friend Nelda Marshall, 91, went to be with our Lord and Savior on August 5, 2022. A service will be held at the Haines First Baptist Church in Haines, Oregon, on Saturday, August 13, 2022, beginning at 2:00 PM. Her interment will be held at the Haines Cemetery at 3:00 PM, and a reception will be held directly after at the Haines First Baptist Church. Pastor Ben Janzen will be officiating.

Nelda was born on July 7, 1931, the youngest of five kids to Shadrach and Dinah Marshall in Hillsville, Virginia. She began working for the bank in their local town right out of high school. Later she transferred to California and worked her way up through the ranks to become associate Vice President of the First National Bank of California before retiring and moving to Oregon

She was always happy to see kids and greeted them*with a treat. Nelda loved helping with the youth in church throughout the years and helped support several missionaries. She also loved animals and raised horses, rabbits, goats, and chickens. As well as a huge garden and fruit trees. But her primary purpose in life was to help lead people to the Lord!

She will be missed by all who knew her.

Nelda was a devoted Aunt to her nieces and nephews in San Pedro. She was a constant source of love and support throughout their childhood. Her nieces and nephews affectionately referred to her as "Nellio."

She is survived by nieces and nephews and many friends.
