Emmy-winning actress Candice Bergen is mourning the loss of her husband, renowned real estate developer Marshall Rose. The philanthropist who had been battling Parkinson's passed away at the age of 88 in the early hours of February 15.
"Beloved father, husband, and friend, died peacefully at home in the early hours of February 15th, surrounded by loved ones. After many years of extraordinary strength and resilience, he passed from complications with Parkinson's disease. He was 88 years old." his online obituary reads.
The obituary further shared:
"Marshall was a profoundly good man. Friends and colleagues looked to him as a mentor, and he consistently modeled a life worth emulating. His effortless gravitas paired with his quick humor and genuine respect for all individuals made him a gifted and compelling leader. A dedicated father and grandfather, Marshall had high expectations for those around him. As a doting dogfather to his beloved goldendoodle Jerry, he instilled similarly high expectations. His family carries on his legacy of fierce compassion, stubborn persistence, and commitment to cheering on the Knicks. His wisdom, strength, and generosity of spirit will be remembered by the countless people whose lives he touched."
The obituary notes that his funeral is set to take place on February 18 at the Central Synagogue in New York. Rather than sending flowers, his family has requested donations to the New York Public Library in his memory.
