Marc-David Roth Shulman passed away suddenly on March 1, 2020, in the comfort of his home in Denville, New Jersey. Marc was a loving father, husband, brother, son, nephew, cousin and friend. He was also a devoted Phish head! He had shared 52 years of unconditional love, laughter, and priceless memories with family and friends.
As a child, Marc was the oldest of all the cousins and led the pack when they were all together. As time went on, he became the lead in so many things including his fraternity, ZBT. In addition, he was the “fun uncle” to his many nieces, nephews and cousins at family gatherings.
He was a devoted father to his son Zac, never missing any games, recitals or practices. There were no stars brighter than the relationship he had with both Zac and Jen. He would drop his whole world to take care of his family, even if it was an evening stop at Denville Dairy in the middle of winter. His thirst for life always kept the weekends filled with amazing adventures including outings with Zac and going to concerts with Jen and their friends. His Chili was beyond compare and will be near impossible to replicate.
