Hello Marshall Family,
Brian was a good friend of our father Charlie Dove, Dad helped Brian into cooking on the ships and worked with him on many ships around new zealand.
We pass on our thoughts to the family. Brian has been using my address for his mail and would often pop in for a cuppa and chat about his days with my Dad and what he had been up to.
Kind regards
from the Dove Girls (written by Josephine)

Hello Marshall Family, I know of a Brian Marshall who worked on the Holmdale as a cook, drank at the Marine in Sumner where he bought a house and resided for many years. He was also a great friend of Ken Sheard (passed 5yrs) Brian went on to lease the kitchen at the Bowl n Jack, Opawa for awhile. Somewhere amongst his life he also raced cars, later bought a small travel bus to live in and towed a generator. Is this the same Brian? He wasn't really seen after Kens passing although his bus was spotted occasionally at WWM Club parking area but became less over the years. Please contact 0220686400 There are a few from Marine days who have wondered if this be him. Condolences on Brians passing over. Shona McD
