William Grant Marlow, history supervisor

William Grant Marlow, 76, of Rehoboth Beach, passed away Thursday, March 2, 2017, after a long battle with congestive heart failure, at his home. He was born Tuesday, Dec. 10, 1940, in Camden, N.J., son of the late Reverend Raymond Marlow and Mildred (Cooper) Marlow.

Mr. Marlow earned a master’s 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 a.m., Saturday, April 29, at All Saints’ Episcopal Church, 18 Olive Ave., Rehoboth Beach, where friends may visit beginning at 10 a.m. A reception will follow the services at All Saints’ Episcopal Parish Hall. Interment will take place at a later date.
All arrangements are being handled by Parsell Funeral Homes and Crematorium, Atkins-Lodge Chapel, Lewes.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests contributions in Mr. Marlow's memory to CAMP Rehoboth Community Center, 37 Baltimore Ave., Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971, or www.camprehoboth.com.
