Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
When I think of Marvin, I think of patience. Oh how did he have them with me learning to water ski… what did it take three years and everything he and Oran could think of and then it was Debbie that was in the water with me at Grand when I finally did ski. From that point on it was every early Sunday morning after he got his cup of coffee he would take Teri and I out in the old red boat to ski. He was a loving man to all of us and he especially was proud of his grandchildren. I know you will all miss his unwaverling love and support.
We will miss Marvin in more ways then one. Our since of security is a little lost now because he was always keeping an eye out for the girls when they got on and off the bus. He was not just a neighbor but a friend. We loved his visits when he would either walk down or drive down on his lawn mower(of course the kids got the biggest kick out of him driving down on his lawn mower). Marvin was really there for us the year John could not drive for 6 months due to a seizure, if John or the girls needed to go somewhere he was always there. John really enjoyed in road trips him and Marvin would go and the talks they would have. We are sorry that we did not get down to see Marvin the last few months but we are glad in a way just to remember him the way he was. We loved him as if he were our family and he will not be forgotten.
We will miss Marvin terribly, he was like family to us, we have lots of good memories. we loved him. Virginia and Phil Green
