Ickford Alfred Marsh was born on September 1, 1945 in English Harbour, Antigua to the late Mrs. Gwendolyn Beatrice Marsh Horsford and Binton Montgomery Marsh. He spent his early years and young adulthood in Antigua and St. Croix, where he showcased his talent as an avid Cricket player and honed his career in carpentry and brick masonry. Mr. Marsh moved to Houston, Texas in 1982, where he continued to work in the construction industry on major projects along the Louisiana-Texas Gulf Coast, through retirement. He spent his last ten years as a retired resident of Mansfield, Texas. His hobbies and interests included Bingo and domino games, WWE wrestling, NFL football, Martial Arts Theater, cooking, listening to Bob Marley, Otis Redding, and Sam Cooke, talking to family and friends (especially every Sunday), and spending time with his grandson, Roman.
