Marshall Sloane graduated from Somerville high with my father Stames N. (Nicky) Stiles (Class of 44) they were high school and Somerville buddies. My father always spoke very highly of him. I have noting but respect and admiration for men and women of the greatest generation, who grew up during the depression and WW II. R I P.
Big loss for the community. Marshall Sloan was a kind very generous man who will be missed by many of the causes that he supported. Rest in Peace.
