The Rotary Club of Cameron Park mourns the passing of our fellow Rotarian Richard “Dick” Marshall, whose remarkable 42 years of Rotary service reflected a lifetime commitment to service and community.
Dick joined the Rotary Club of Cameron Park on Oct. 14, 2025. Just a few weeks later, on Nov. 6, President Adam Marshall proudly presented his father with his new blue badge and a Past President pin.
Before joining our club, Dick was a dedicated member of the Rotary Club of West Sacramento for 41 years, where he also served as club president. After relocating to our area to be closer to family, Dick continued his Rotary journey with us in Cameron Park.
At one of our meetings, Dick shared that one of his favorite Rotary memories was attending the 2025 Rotary International Convention in Calgary, Canada, with Adam. It was a particularly meaningful experience for father and son and reflected their shared commitment to Rotary and service.
Dick also had a distinguished record of public and military service. His career included 16 years as reclamation district manager in Clarksburg. He also served 20 years in the Air Force Reserve, including active-duty service, and flew 83 combat missions over Vietnam.
At Dick’s final meeting with the Rotary Club of West Sacramento, he was recognized as the club’s featured veteran in honor of Veterans Day. A Paul Harris contribution was also made in his honor—a fitting recognition of his many years of Rotary and community service.
Although Dick was a member of the Rotary Club of Cameron Park for only a relatively short time, we were fortunate to welcome him into our Rotary family and to share in the final chapter of his extraordinary 42 years as a Rotarian. He will certainly be missed by our members, as well as by his longtime Rotary friends in West Sacramento.
