July 21, 1965-April 7, 2024
Todd Miles Marquart, 58, strong-willed husband, father, and papa passed away the evening of Sunday April 7th, 2024, at his home surrounded by wife, children and grandchildren in Spokane, Washington.
Todd was born Wednesday July 21, 1965, in Missoula Montana to loving parents Leo and Gladys (Dauenhauer) Marquart as the youngest of seven children. Todd grew up in Missoula MT playing sports and working on cars at his father's auto shop. On the weekends Todd enjoyed going camping and fishing at owl creek.
Todd moved to Orting WA in 1984. Todd married his first wife Ellen in 1984 they shared two daughters Brittney and Brandi, sadly in 1994 they divorced, but were able to work together to raise their children.
While working at DSHS Rainer school in 1995, Todd met his lifelong companion Tina, along with her son Jerry Parr. Todd and Tina then went to trucking school but due to medical reasons Todd was unable to pursue his long-lasting passion of being a truck driver and returned to DSHS. Todd and Tina married in 2003 and share a son of their own Justin Marquart. Todd has two Grandchildren that meant the world to him.
Throughout Todd's life his family has always been his number one priority. Todd enjoyed the simple things in life drinking coffee in the morning with his wife, going on walks around the golf course while searching for golf balls, going to any and every sporting event, going for ice cream with the grandchildren or sitting around the dinner table playing games laughing and joking.
Todd was preceded in death by his parents Leo and Gladys Marquart and sister Bonnie Marquart and loving pets.
Todd is survived by wife Tina (Lind) Marquart, daughter Brittney (Eric) Aho, bonus son Jerry (Arlea) Parr, daughter Brandi Marquart, son Justin Marquart, granddaughter Allie Marquart, grandson Ryker Aho, brother Rod (Carol) Marquart, sister Leola (Doug) Oliver, brother Tim (Sherri) Marquart, brother Tracey (Wendy) Marquart, brother Mike (Danetta) Marquart, along with many nieces and nephews.
Todd was a remarkable husband, father, papa, brother, and uncle that will be missed beyond words. We are grateful for the time we got, the laughter we shared and the lessons that were taught.
In his memory, we ask that you share a Mountain Dew and a Reeses with someone you love.
