David K. Marsh Chili: Friday, April 25, 2025 at age 75. Predeceased by his parents, Stanley and Isabelle; granddaughter, Grace; sister, Ruth Eads; brother, Alan Bushart; and brother-in-law, Geoff Hayden. Survived by his wife of 52 years, Karen; sons, Benjamin (Kelly), Nathan (Ha), Daniel (Janelle) and Timothy; grandchildren, Alyssa, Mikayla, Ian, Isaac, Amber, Aaron, Leah, Madeline and Abigail; a great-granddaughter and grandson on the way; siblings, Carmen (Beth) Bushart, Karen Hayden, Warren (Barb) Bushart, Kevin (Kim) Bushart, Jeff Marsh and Linda (Steve) Castleberry; brother-in-law, Bruce (Katharine) Johnson; and several nieces, nephews and dear friends. First and foremost, David’s priorities throughout life were God and his family. He was a dedicated husband, and father to four boys. He married Karen, the love of his life, on July 15,1972 and was faithful and true to this commitment for 52 years. David earned a degree in electronics from Alfred Tech. Shortly after graduation he was drafted into the US Army, attended Radio Signal School, and worked on radios in Anchorage, Alaska where he was stationed. After discharge he continued fixing radios for 45 more years as an employee of Harris Corp., Rochester, NY. David was blessed with many talents. He participated in construction and technically oriented projects: remodeling and restoring his 1860 farmhouse, overseeing the addition of a basement level to Bergen Presbyterian Church, helping to restore a house heavily damaged by fire, joining church friends in roofing multiple houses for friends and those in need… The list goes on and on. He kept busy constructing things in his barn woodworking shop. Always readily available to help, he demonstrated his faith through these activities. His faith in Christ alone was vital. He would want everyone to know that Jesus Christ is the only way to peace with God. Family and friends may call at the Leo M. Bean and Sons Funeral Home Friday 4-7pm. Funeral Service Saturday 11am at Faith Baptist Church, 2954 S. Union St. Rochester, NY 14624. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the church.
