Marvin, we will miss you, immensely. You offered love, comfort and humor to everyone you met. You were always someone we could count on, and although you didn’t like to be the center of attention, you always got your point across without judgement, and always provided us sound advice. You will be sorely missed by your bride Sandy of 64 years. So many family members and friends thought the world of you. You treated all of us with love, kindness and respect. You taught your children excellent work ethic. Marvin loved each and every one of his nephews and nieces. It always brought him great joy to visit all of them at every opportunity possible.
