William Grant Marlow's Obituary
William Grant Marlow, age 76, of Rehoboth Beach, DE passed away on Thursday, March 02, 2017 after a long battle with congestive heart failure at his home. He was born Tuesday, December 10, 1940 in Camden, NJ, son of the late Reverend Raymond Marlow and Mildred (Cooper) Marlow.
Mr. Marlow earned a Masters Degree in Education, allowing him a lifetime career as an educator and culminating as History Supervisor at Camden City Public Schools. He loved vintage cars, was active in drama clubs, and was a voracious reader. Mr. Marlow was a choir director and organist for over 50 years, as well as a collector of classic movies and radio shows. More than anything however, he cherished time spent with loved ones. He was a caring and devoted husband, father, and friend, and he will be deeply missed by those who were blessed to know him.
Mr. Marlow is survived by his beloved husband, Gregory Brown, and his daughter, Myra Elizabeth Marlow.
A Memorial Service will be held at 11:00 AM on Saturday, April 29, 2017 at All Saints Episcopal Church, 18 Olive Avenue, Rehoboth Beach, DE, where friends may visit beginning at 10:00 AM. A reception will follow the services at All Saints Episcopal Parish Hall. Interment will take place at a later date.
