Marshall Cerullo

Marshall Cerullo, 67, of Buckhannon, W.Va., died Wednesday, March 2, 2022, after a short illness, at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Buckhannon.

He is survived by his former wife and best friend, Barbara Cerullo; three children, Jennifer Asbury of Poca, WV, Michael Sims of Washington, DC, and Richard Cerullo and wife Jenny Small of Buckhannon; three granddaughters; one sister, Jennifer Knapp of Savannah, GA and two brothers, Gale Harman of Tornado, WV and Matthew Harman of Saint Albans, WV.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Daniel and Alice Harman and his brother, Cameron Harman.

Mr. Cerullo loved the outdoors and tending to his pigs, cows, chickens and dog, Daisy. He especially liked sitting around with older folks listening to their stories, thinking about what it would’ve been like to live back then.
