1952 - 2023
 Marc Edward Rose, 70, of Huntington, WV left his earthly life early on Saturday, June 10, 2023, at the Emogene Dolin Jones Hospice House after a short battle with brain cancer. Marc was a graduate of South Point High School, served as a Boiler Tech 3rd class petty officer in the U.S. Navy on the USS Oriskany (1971-1974), and obtained his Electrician certification at the Cabell County VoTech Center. As a career Electrician at Cabell Huntington Hospital from 1976-2014, Marc had a hands-on view of the growth and evolution of the local medical center where he made many friends who became family. Marc loved the freedom of the open road on his Harley-Davidson and the fellowship with many beloved friends he met along the way as a member of the HOG Chapter from Benjy’s Harley-Davidson. He equally enjoyed the time alone spent disassembling and cleaning his bike for the next adventure. Marc’s sense of humor and quick wit could bring a laugh to any situation and a smile to all who knew him. He was born on December 10, 1952, in Huntington, WV, a son of the late Gene Edward Rose and Frances Rae Handley Davidson. He is survived by his loving wife of 28 years, Cheryl Rose; his loving daughter, Katie Shull (Jared) of Huntington; son, Todd Wallace (Rebecca) of Barboursville; sister, Lucinda Rose of Huntington; four grandchildren: Alden, Jewel, Brian, and Heaven; and his cat “furbabies.” Funeral services will be conducted at 1 p.m. Wednesday, June 14, 2023, at Wallace Funeral Home in Barboursville, officiated by his daughter, Katie Shull. Burial will be at Forest Memorial Park in Milton. Visitation will be Wednesday from 12-1 p.m. at Wallace Funeral Home in Barboursville. Online condolences may be expressed to the family at www.timeformemory/wallace. |
