Ms. Andre Marshall suddenly and peacefully passed away on March 13, 2025, in New Braunfels, Texas, surrounded by family. Andre was born on Jan. 30, 1957, in Nassawadox, to parents Owen and Lousie Marshall, of Saxis.
Andre spent most of her life growing up on the eastern shores of Saxis. It was where she learned to shuck oysters that came straight from the bay. Andre also worked for Holly Farms Chicken in Virginia, and lastly, before retiring, she worked at DuPont Children’s Hospital in Wilmington, Del.
Andre loved spending time with family and traveling. She loved going to Ocean City, Md., and Chincoteague, where she watched and enjoyed the annual Pony Swim and Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company Carnival. She also loved music and attending concerts. Some of her favorite artists included Wynonna Judd, George Strait, and Elvis Presley.
In her later years, she loved watching crime shows and rooting for her Dallas Cowboys. Despite being born and raised in Washington Redskins and Philadelphia Eagles territory, Andre was a die- hard Dallas Cowboys fan and proudly displayed and stated her love for the team. Lastly, Andre had a love for playing bingo, and she would often play with her sister, mother, and friends. In her final years, she obtained a collection of stuffed animals that proudly displayed her bingo accomplishments.
