He was born to William Dominick Marsella Sr. and Mildred E Marsella on September 10, 1952 in Norristown PA, and grew up in NJ. He was a son to be proud of.

William and Karen had two children Dawn Marie Marsella and William Dominick Marsella III. He then relocated his family to Florida where he continued work success and quality time with his loved ones. Late he had the opportunity to temporarily reside in the beautiful state of Colorado where he enjoyed working and caring for the Elk Run Ranch one of the most breath taking properties he'd ever seen. He felt blessed to be there enjoying his love of nature and animals with his soul mate and wife of 38 years, his beloved pets, and the time he was able to spend connecting with his father.
