Dar-Shon Darrell Marsh was born July 30, 1988, in Akron, Ohio. He transitioned from this earth on December 17, 2018 in Akron, Ohio.

Dar-Shon was educated within the Akron Public School system and graduated John R. Buchtel High School where he played varsity basketball and football. While in high school, Dar-Shon worked at Walgreens in the photo lab and started a landscaping and cleaning business. Upon graduating from high school Dar-Shon attended Walsh University and later the University of Akron where he majored in Business Administration.
