Anthony Marshall Simone passed away tragically January 6, 2023, at Powderhorn Mountain
Resort, near Grand Junction, Colorado. Marshall grew up hiking, skiing, golfing, cooking, and
backpacking in the Rocky Mountains of Grand County, Colorado. He graduated valedictorian
from Middle Park Highschool and moved to St Paul, Minnesota to graduate Macalester College,
Summa Cum Laude, with a degree in Political Science. Marshall was then employed at the
Stinson Law Firm in Minneapolis and, as always, went above and beyond to become a valued
member of their legal team. He carried his exceptional work ethic forward to the RSM
Accounting Firm as a tax associate, where he was employed at the time of his passing.
Marshall met his beloved Raya at a tea shop in St Paul, near Macalester. As they planned their
future together, they enjoyed time with family and friends, exploring the town of Minneapolis, the
red canyons of Utah and the mountains near the Colorado National Monument where his
parents and sister live.
Marshall was confident and accomplished, from a very young age, but was most known for his
incredible zest for life. His smile and laughter were infectious wherever he went. When asked
what people appreciated most about Marshall they included his intelligence, kindness, and
marvelous sense of humor. Marshall also had an amazing knack of giving people his undivided
attention and making them feel understood. He was committed to doing his absolute best, in
everything, and sharing his lifeforce with everyone he knew and loved. Marshall’s generosity of
spirit will never be forgotten, he was a marvelous son, brother, partner, and friend.
Marshall is survived by his mother and father, Nancy and Tony Simone, sister Marisa Simone
and life partner Raya Israelson and in addition, numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
