“Guy would think this was great,” according to Chuck Kelley, who knew how deeply Guy cared about the people he chatted with in his daily walks around Waikiki.

Guy also cared about students; endowed scholarships from his fund help Hawai‘i students through four years of college on the

mainland. And, starting in 2015, the Marshall Fund honored Guy’s commitment to education by providing grants to island schools developing International Baccalaureate (IB) Programmes.

While the Kelley family and others who knew Guy Marshall will always remember and admire him, his impact will be felt for many years to come by those who never even knew the man.

Cecil “Guy” Marshall was a long-time friend and

business associate of Roy and Estelle Kelley. They would share lunch every day at one of the Outrigger hotel dining rooms, and if Roy had a project in mind, he would often recruit Guy—whether to look for properties in Waikl-kl- or get involved in hotel operations and design. Ironically, as a tax auditor with the IRS, Tasmanian-born Guy Marshall had a background far removed from hospitality!

Dr. Charles “Chuck” Kelley, now Chairman of the Board of Outrigger Enterprises Group, remembers seeing Guy at family gatherings, and would visit with him at the ‘OHANA Waikiki West Hotel, where Guy had an apartment. “I came to know Guy as a gentleman with a sharp fi nancial mind. He loved to save money and spent almost nothing on himself.”

Thanks to that frugality and business acumen, Guy left a very generous estate to the Hawai‘i Community Foundation, where the Cecil “Guy” Marshall Fund was established. The fi rst large grant was a multi-year

commitment to help Hawai‘i’s community health centers implement the transition to electronic medical records.

“With the grants we received from the Marshall Fund,” said Sheila Beckham, CEO of Waikiki Community Health Center, “community health centers like ours could not only conform to government requirements, but also deliver better patient care.

A grant from the Cecil Guy Marshall Fund at HCF allowed community health centers, including Waikiki Health, to move to electronic medical records allowing for better service to their patients.

“ Guy is a good example of how to carry out your wishes beyond your lifetime and continue to do good in the community.”Dr. Charles Kelley

The fund also helps high schools to develop International Baccalaureate (IB) Programmes, like the one at Henry J. Kaiser High School, to help students accelerate their learning.
