Jeffrey A. Marrell

It is with deep sorrow and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Jeffrey A. Marrell, 54, who left this world far too soon on October 14, 2025. Jeff was a beloved son, brother, uncle, partner, and friend. Though he was never married, he shared a meaningful and cherished relationship with his significant other, Rosie, who brought love and joy to his life. Always by his side was his loyal little dog, Tito, his constant companion, and source of comfort.

Known affectionately by those close to him as a "gentle giant," Jeff had a commanding presence that was matched only by his warmth and compassion. He has a brilliant, curious mind and a passionate spirit. Whether it was discussing politics, caring for animals, or exploring new places through travel, Jeff approached life with thoughtfulness and enthusiasm.

Professionally, Jeff found great success as a mortgage broker, earning the respect and admiration of both clients and colleagues. But it was his kindness, quiet strength, and authenticity that left the most lasing impression on all who knew him.

Jeff is deeply mourned and lovingly remembered by his mother and father, his stepmother and stepfather, his two sisters, three nieces, one nephew, and a dear aunt. He will be sorely missed by his younger handicapped sister, Nikki, who Jeff never missed a moment to show her how much she is loved. His loss is felt profoundly by his family, friends, and all whose lives he touched.

Jeff will be laid to eternal rest at sea off the coast of Dana Point.

The family will hold a Celebration of Life for close family and friends to honor and remember him.

Jeff, your absence leaves an ache in our hearts, but your spirit remains ever-present in our memories.

We love you. Rest in peace and may your soul now roam free.
