Ward Marquette Obituary (1958 - 2021) - Attleboro, Massachusetts

MARQUETTE, Ward P. of Attleboro, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, February 9, 2021 at 62 years of age. Beloved husband of Heather F. (MacLean) Marquette of 38 years. Son of the late Janice Vickery and Phillip Marquette. Stepson of Ann Campbell of Phoenix, AZ. Loving father of Douglas Marquette of Dorchester and Anthony Marquette of Roslindale. Adored brother to Molly Campbell of Phoenix, AZ, Joe Campbell of Scituate and the late Vanessa Campbell. Son-in-law to Mary MacLean of Dorchester and the late Douglas MacLean. Nephew of Patricia Cook of Phoenix, AZ and Kathy Linn of Brighton, MI. Ward attended the Associated Technical Institute for Computer Electronics and the Polycom Learning Center where he received certifications in MGC, CMA, DMA & RMX Administration. He worked as a Machinist at E.L. LeBaron Foundry from 1980-1988 and as a Multimedia Manager at Bingham McCutchen, LLP from 1988-2014. Ward was a dedicated father and husband, a hard worker, and a provider. When he wasn’t accomplishing daily miracles at work, he could be found chillin’ out with some great tunes. Ward was an occasionally successful freshwater fisherman who loved the Quabbin Reservoir and camping with his family. Always an avid sports fan, he loved the New England Patriots and Boston Red Sox. He coached his two sons along with many other lucky children in Savin Hill Little League Baseball. Ward was an expert in multimedia, audio, video, computer technology, and video games who generously shared the gifts of his knowledge and talents.
